There are three parts to the pedal--the pedal itself, the thing it pushes on and the cable coming out the back of it.
The pedal is real easy to install because it's held in with a metal rod that sticks through two bent-up places on the floor. You pull the rod out, take out the old pedal, put the new one in and replace the rod.
The thing it pushes on is the "pedal cluster." The brake and clutch pedals are part of it. To get this out you gotta jack up the car and unhook the clutch cable from the transmission, then open the engine cover and unhook the accelerator cable from the carb. The cluster is held to the car by two bolts which go into the tunnel. Remove them both, then work the clutch arm out through the hole it goes into. (While you're there, look at the end of the clutch cable and at the clutch arm. If either of them looks questionable, replace it now because floating the gears to get home is not fun.)
The cable you replace by removing the pedal cluster, pulling the old cable out, pushing the new one in and reattaching it at both ends. Make sure you get a cable for a carbureted car. The ones for fuel injected cars will work but they're too long.
The hood release lever on a 2000 Volkswagen Beetle is located to the left of the brake pedal, near the door. It resembles a handle which is pulled toward the rear of the vehicle to release.
To adjust the clutch cable on a 1971 Volkswagen Beetle after installation, first, locate the clutch cable adjuster near the transmission. Loosen the lock nut and turn the adjuster to achieve the desired tension; typically, there should be about 1-2 inches of free play at the clutch pedal. Once the adjustment is made, tighten the lock nut securely. Test the clutch operation to ensure smooth engagement and disengagement.

Your Peloton shoe may be stuck on the pedal due to a malfunction or improper installation. To safely remove it, try gently twisting and pulling the shoe off the pedal. If that doesn't work, consult the Peloton user manual for specific instructions or contact customer support for assistance.
The "automatic gearbox" Volkswagen used to put in Beetles is an "autostick" transmission. It has a three-speed manual transmission connected to a vacuum-operated clutch and a torque converter. There's no clutch pedal but you still have to shift it.
In a Classic Beetle, it's screwed into the master cylinder. New Beetles will have it in the vicinity of the brake pedal lever.
The brake light switch is found behind the 1998 VW Beetles brake pedal. Reach it by removing the lower dash console to gain access to the nut holding the switch in place. Remove the nut then then the switch.
