Would be grateful for input regarding replacing dead pedal on '07 987S. It would appear from examining the replacement that the current pedal needs to be moved upward for disengaging small attachment clips. Can anyone verify whether this is correct?

TIA

That's correct. I replaced mine on a 2006 Boxster S with the factory 'aluminum-look' footrest. You can move it upwards for a fraction of an inch before it feels 'locked'. At that point grab the top edge and pull it backwards. It will come out. I tried for a day unsuccessfully without using force. When I pulled it back hard it came out immediately.

Thanks for the confirmation. It was straightforward as you described. Appreciate the advice.
