G'day guys,
Just had my clutch pedal spring snap. Had a quick look on eBay with no luck, is this a repco part or do I have to head to ford? Cheers Chris

Thanks for that, have one down the road from work - The fitting part, I have heard it can be a nightmare. Im sure its something that lots of cursing and sweating will fix!

Ford quoted me 4 hours labour which was to apparently dismantle and refit the clutch pedal to fit the spring.
Ultratune did it for 1.5hrs labour for the same thing. Now that I know where the clips are for the dash panels under the steering, I would remove that panel and try to wrangle it into place and save $150 bucks.
