Car update: Complete re-work and modification of the brake system...
I'll start with a small post; the removal of the system but I'm not going to show you the rotors and caliper procedure because I'm sure most of you know and have done so in the past.
I'll concentrate on everything else in the system.
First the removal of the steering column.

Electronic gas pedal (made of plastic) with the three pedals' mounting bracket made of cast aluminium. You can also notice the various relays/switches that are used for both the clutch and brake pedals.

From the inside a view of the brakes master cylinder. Located on the right side in this picture just above the "black patch". On its left is the steering wheel column attachment.
