				 |  Dead Pedal 
			I am starting to wear a spot in the carpeting under my left foot resting spot.  I am thinking of installing a Dead Pedal.  Any one done this??  I probably could make an inexpensive one.  Definetly not interested in the Billet Grade Aircraft Aluminum ones for $100. Any recommendations? Got one for sale?? Also thought of gluing down a piece of vinyl or rubber to cover the spot which is a no brainer. Thanks, Ron D

			Hi Ron, You may be on your own with this one. I don't believe a dead pedal will fit the narrow footwell of a Targa. | ||

			If that dead pedal required drilling I would opt for the rubber or vinyl myself. Particulalry in your neck of the woods. Craign | ||

			I think you guys are right. Not enough foot room in a Targa for a Dead Pedal and the vinyl or rubber pad will not require any hole drilling. I'll post a picture of what I come up with. I'll just glue it in place. What a great way to bounce around new ideas! Thanks, Ron D

			I gave up on the Dead Pedal and instead glued some ribbed vinyl as a foot rest for my left foot and a small wear pad next to the gas pedal where my right foot rests.  Low cost effective solution to not wearing out the carpeting. thanks, Ron D

			Nice fix.  BTW You can also attach a dead pedal to the edge of the floor board that is behind the pedals and not drill into metal. | ||
