Help! Removing the plastic throttle / accelerator pedal

Hi, I’m just trying to replace the plastic throttle / accelerator foot pedal. By the looks of it, it should just slide down so you can pull it off. But I’ve tried all sorts and it won’t budge at all. Am I missing anything or any suggestions would be much appreciated?!

I’ve got a new genuine LR one to replace it, but I couldn’t find any other posts on this.

It’s removed by bolts through the bulkhead from memory. It’s a complete unit pedal, arm, and large electronic box (potentiometer), and has wire connection on it.

Thanks landy andy, but I’m not trying to remove the whole accelerator unit, just the pedal pad: https://www.lrparts.net/sad000010pma-accel...lable.html

Do you know if this can be replaced without removing the whole unit?

From memory, the pad has a lip all of the way around the back and needs to be 'peeled' off of the pedal. A look at the new one should tell you. Darren
