    I realize this might be one of the silliest forum questions ever, but I could use some advice. Just received my custom pedalboard from Monkey Dream Pedalboards (if you haven’t seen these — they are awesome – check them out at http://monkeydream.com). I have a new Metal Muff and want to remove the four circular rubber feet so that I can apply velcro for pedalboard mounting.

    Does anyone know:
    1) Are these just glued to the bottom of the pedal?
    2) Are they easily removed without damaging or scratching the paint? (Okay, so I’m a little particular about keeping my equipment looking like new)
    3) Is there actually an EHX support team (email/phone number) for these sort of inquiries? And if so, is it possible to order spare parts for their pedals (i.e. extra rubber feet in case I ever want to put them back on?)

    Sorry for all of the questions. Better to get them all out to keep the thread short.

    They are glued on, pry them off with a butter knife or a fork. I use a hunting knife but that can be dangerous!

    yeah, you might even just be able to pull them off with a finger nail..

    …you can buy replacements from all over the place (electronics shops, pedal suppliers, ebay etc etc)

    i feel you on that one,….i need to keep mine as nice and new and original as possible.

    and i do remove the rubber feet to attach them to boards.

    most you can just pull off with your fingers, they use a strong double sided tape dot, that’s very much like glue.

    if you cant pull them off by hand, the knife thing that others have mentioned does work, but i think gripping it a little with sum type of pliers and pulling away from the pedal is better, there’s no fear of scratching the unit.

    and like they sed, you can get exact matching replacements almost anywhere, i get them in bulk off ebay, i have a shoe box full….literally! we need to keep them lookin new! even if there just off the board for a week….lol.
