I have been thinking about a dead pedal for my Six lately. It has been a while since I sat in it but I am pretty sure it does not have one from the factory. I would like to see/hear some ideas and thoughts about this. If I were to add one I would want it to be as invisible as possible - so no polished metals, etc. Since Scotty has not put color on the car yet, now would be the time to make a minor modification if that were called for.

No 914 that I'm aware of ever had a dead pedal in it from the factory. There are a number of aftermarket ones available, even the stock 911 that Mark posted above.
If you're interested in it being truly invisible, have one like those welded in, then modify your carpet to fit over it. Then glue on a pedal cover of some kind--I wouldn't use a brake or clutch pedal cover, because they are smaller than I would prefer for a dead pedal. But I might try cutting down a big "double wide" brake pedal cover from some 70s land barge and using it, or perhaps cutting up an old accelerator pedal and using that. Failing that, get whatever you like and paint it black. It'll disappear under the dash anyway. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) --DD |
