I installed the shift peg earlier this year (per BigBF's link - worked like a charm) and noticed yesterday that one of the rubber rings were missing. I looked all over Kury's website and can't find anything about ordering parts? Any suggestions? I don't want to replace the whole shift peg for one rubber ring. Definitely going to glue the other three down good and tight!

Call them, they are pretty good about replacing the rubber inserts.

I have the Kury brake pedal cover and got tired of replacing the rubber pads. I went to Lowe's and bought a roll of adhesive backed nonslip stuff that is intended for steps. I just cut it to fit inside the recessed area, removed the backing and stuck it in the recess. This stuff doesn't protrude above the pedal so it's not as apt to get pushed off when you slide your foot over it. I have the shifter peg too and if I have problems with it, I'll remove the remaining rings and use the nonslip stuff inside the grooves. If you can't find replacement rings, this could be an option for you.

Arrgghhh... reply from Kury is that they do not have replacement rubber inserts available, but if it is inside the one-year warranty period the retailer should be able to give me a new one. Well, as you know, installing this item on our shift lever requires grinding down the inside edge of the peg, which I'm sure will void the warranty. Looks like I'm going to have to buy a new peg just to get the inserts. I guess I'll have some spare parts!

Go check with your Kury dealer. They might be able to get the rings for you.

I wonder if your dealer would rob an insert from a non-ground down shift peg and use it as the swap out. Helpful hint, grab a handful of other chrome to buy and then ask before you check out.

SKG574> Yep, that's what I need, but $6 for the item and $6 shipping, for another $5 I can get the whole peg assembly from Amazon, delivered. What to do...

Big IV> The dealer was online, and purchased by my wife last Christmas. Interesting idea though...
