Lightbulb Drivers footrest?

I all, has anyone added a dead foot rest for the driver side? I have been cruising around and find that there is no really great place to put your left foot. It's not that I am too tall (6 foot). Let me hear about how many of you have dealt with this situation.

Thanks,

Brian

There are two possible ways to go, buy one which tend to be a little small, I feel for the cost, or make one as I did. I think there are some pictures of it with the 914 race car article on the PP site here. I made mine from 0.25 inch aluminum and bent it so my foot is even with the clutch pedal and I use 6 sheet metal screws to hold it in. Aluminum that thick is hard to bend but is managable. Good luck.

There is a member of the 914Club.com that is making SS dead pedals and pedal covers. The dead pedal alone is $42, there are pics of other member's installs.

They're listed in the "914 Resources, Parts and Products" forum as "Dead, Clutch, Brake and Accell SS Pedals, The full meal deal!"
