Anyone replaced a vacuum brake booster on a C5? There are 4 nuts in the footwell that retain the booster and the top 2 appear to be impossible. I've got a manual for a '97, unfortunately not for my '00, and it just says remove retaining nuts. It's killing me!! It looks like I can take out the clutch pedal assembly and get to the outboard nut, but the inboard one is behind the steering column.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Those are a PAIN.... I use a shallow socket on a swivel with a 6-9 inch extention and an air ratchet.... It's tough but you can get it...
Good Luck

I had to drop my steering column to install my white face guages. If you think dropping it a bit will help you access those bolts heres the instructions I used at the vette essentials site . http://www.vetteessentials.com/instructions/g_bezels/bezel_howto.html
It sounds kind of crazy but you have to take apart the consol before you can access the bolts.
