Sparco pedal install

[14T6MT]

I received an email from Dave at DDMWorks:
"thanks for the suggestion, we will add it to the list of projects for the car. Not sure when exactly we are going to be able to get to it, because of everything else we are working on for the car, but it is a good idea that we will look into."
"If we start to have some prototype, we will post it up on the forum for everyone to see."

as ThatTmoGuy said in his posts. I have The Carbon Fiber Metal Racing Pedals that just clamp onto the Stock Pedals and mine have been holding on just fine with the clamps and no clearance issues at all. I can say as others have stated that they were a complete pain in the Backend to put on those stock pedals. Not much to work with thats for sure! But i love how they feel when im driving. Havent had any slipping or anything.

UPDATE!!! I was inspired by Tmo to go to the hardware store and give this another shot. Here are the results...
I bought #10-24x3/4 bolts and #10 flat quick nuts, any hardware store should have both of these items. Then I did this:

And this is the result:

To clarify, I took the stock rubber covers off the brake and clutch before attaching these. These pedals have a thin rubber backing anyway and I figured they may feel a little loose if I left the stock rubber on there. The clutch and brake went on easily, I drilled one hole in the gas for the top-right mounting point. It took about 45 minutes total.
They're very solid so far, we'll see if there are any issues with longevity. Forget heel toe, these are spaced so that I can easily hit gas and brake with a vertical foot (I have wide feet). They feel so much better!
THANK YOU TMO!! I would have given up if you hadn't responded with those comments and pics!

good job. glad you got it figured out.

Those look GREAT! I like how the gas is slightly tilted towards the brake it should make heel toe a bit easier.

It does. I'll give them a few weeks and then do a review. If DDMWorks comes out with pedals someday I'll still buy them.

Sparco has a sweet dead pedal that matches these.........that'll be on by the end of next month. Then someday, once I've done enough handling and performance work to make my humble car worthy, I'll bless it with a Sparco driver's seat.

Looks like they would clamp on like Tmo's pedals. I bet they'll fit but they only have that one photo so it's hard to tell.

[ThatTmoGuy]

I have a custom foot print gas pedal cover for mine but I need to get something for the brake and clutch. I have had my foot slip off the clutch backing up twice and lucky I got it back on before going through a fence the first time and my 2011 durango the second.
