Cabriolet dead pedals?

Any suggestions for a dead pedal that will fit on a Cabriolet?

Rennline

Check out the Rennline deadpedal. I have one in my Targa. Fits the odd wheel well spot perfectly and did wonders for providing a good foot position for long drives.

Good luck, Gordo

Thanks Gordo, that's what I was looking for.

I'm in the process of putting wood blocks on my pedals so I can slide my seat back. I'm only 5'3" and right now I feel like I'm sitting underneath the windshield instead of behind it.

I plan to cover the wood with metal pedals. So the Rennline dead pedal will fit right in.

I got a pelican parts dead pedal and it looks great. it took a tiny bit of cutting with a dremel tool but it fits really nice.

Great opportunity to support the forum host...... ;

REnnline, but you got to trim it a bit to fit in a couple areas. Somereason, cabs a bit different.

The cabs have extra metal re-inforcement in that area to increase body rigidity.

Be careful when drilling the screws for the dead pedal - there's a big wiring harness for the computer right behind the carpet there that can blow out your computer if you don't move the wires over - don't ask me how I know.

Wow, thanks for the alert. I was not aware of that. I can guess how you know.
