If you've done, do you have any recommendations?
Check with Vinnie. Think he did.
EDIT
Pics here.

Pull the driver side kick panel off,locate where you want the pedal and hold the kick panel over it so you can get the pedal where you want it without having to trim the kick panel.Once you figure out where you want it,drill two holes and use some self tapping bolts (giant screws?) to hold it on.re-install the kick panel.....done.Takes about 10 minutes or so......
This was taken during the 5 speed pedal installation......I'll have the new Steeda pedal covers on next week...

what pedal did you use?
Vinnie, is that touching the floor or above it. MAybe its the picture, maybe my eyes, I can't tell. lol
It's above the floor as if it were magically suspended in air.LOL.
Vinnie, is that pedal from a Mustang? Do you have any trouble with the parking brake?
The dead pedal IS from a Fox Stang,and there are zero issues with the parking brake.Install that thing and call it good.I drilled the holes probably a little smaller than I should have for the two bolts,but,the bolts went in wicked tight,and it's (the pedal) on there solid.
Whats it used for? looks crowded to me.
It's just a left foot rest. Saves the carpeting from getting scuffed up in that area. Even with the e-brake pedal being in that area, it still doesn't interfere with anything. Nice to have. Standard equipment on the Mustang, we got the shaft, therefore we must upgrade.
Still looks crowded, I have long legs so it don't do me any good.
I plan on doing this mod if I get the XR7 that I have in mind.
BTW, not all Stangs had this. GTs had them from '87 and up and LX 5.0s from '90 and up.
I put one into my 89 LX 5.0. Got it out of a 90's GT that took a pole on the driver cowl. A friend helped me get what he could. He said "I got it." and hands me the pad. I retreieved the base. It was bent up enough that it took a hammer and a vice to straighten.
All of the dead pedals I bought came from 4 cyl. cars.
My car has a factory dead pedal. It's the one furthest on the right. You push on it and nothing happens. I'm hoping the HO upgrade will take care of that problem :mullet:
I was not sure if the 4 bangers got them from '90 on up. Thanx for thre info. I just got one from a C4C 97 GT. For some reason, the SN95 Stangs have loose dead pedals.
The SN95 Mustangs use the same dead pedal as well. I keep forgetting to snag one when I go to Pick-A-Part.
Also, if anyone sees a Fox Lincoln in salvage yards you might enjoy the the aluminum brake pedal trim for the automatics. It says "4 Wheel Anti-lock Brakes"
but who cares. Another tip, change out the accelerator pedal assembly for a SN95 Mustang type. This gives you the option to add the aluminum pedal trim available for those cars.
Anyway here is the Fox Lincoln pedal trim in the picture. The "4 Wheel Anti-lock Brakes" lettering is washed out with the flash in the photo.

I find it interesting that an SN95 was accepted as a C4C! Imagine all of the suspensions that could potentially end up in the yards....or worse, crushed. I better start looking. :rolleyes:
