With the gen 3, you're best to use the petal harness and TAC that came with the ecu/motor. You can look on Rock Auto website for the APP sensor to see if it interchanges with another year/petal. Or you could fab your own from just the sensor.

I just looked at the rock auto website. Good news, for an aftermarket pedal assmbly, that APP sensor interchanges with gen 4 up to 2020. You may be able to use a generic, aftermarket gen 4 pedal/sensor. OEM GM list it only for 06, 07, but that may be pedal shape/mounting related.

With your P59 computer you are limited to the 06-07 pedal and module with the current 06 operating system.

You can re flash the PCM with an 05 operating system and use an 03-05 pedal and module. The 03-05 pedal has a metal arm and you can modify customize it for your needs.
