Don't get those "Sparco" ones or those "Momo" ones. They suck. They're plated steel. They'll rust faster than anything. I'm not sure if they come with screws, but they only attach at two points. Sucky!!! Get mine, or get some other kinds from JCWhitney.com, or some other place like that. SummitRacing.com may have them too... There's these nice locking ones without any pins. Those are nice. Some people have those on this site. I like mine too though. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

Yeah, that was me. I can't find it though. Must have been archived and it disappeared. Kinda sucks. I think I have it somewhere. I'll try to revive it later.

Yeah, hehe... I should do that huh? Could you measure that pedal for me? I can hash a design out really quick if I knew the size of the stock brake pedal in an automatic. I need width and height. Exact measurements too...
