Is it safe to screw into the area the dead pedal goes, or are there wires under there?

Thanks

I think Taco Bill did a write up

 

Don't know about under it, but I would certainly watch the huge wire loom to the left side......

The only thing under the carpet is the factory "dead pedal" which is simply a piece of styrofoam, no wires in that. What pedal are you installing though? I have the Steeda dead pedal and it mounts using a bracket that is screwed to a bolt that is just below that wire loom - nothing goes into the styrofoam (although I had to remove and trim the styrofoam to get my Steeda dead pedal in place properly)

 

i STILL can't believe how SMALL that dead pedal is

 

I'm installing the on from Ultimate Pedals. I just screwed into the foam for now. If it loosens, I'll look into a different mounting options.

Thanks,

You could always stick an appropriate sized piece of wood or plastic beneath the carpet and screw into that instead of the foam.

 

I just screwed mine in same as yours. No problems after 6 months. Hey Danny which pedal style did you go with. I went shiny with domed black rubber thingys?

 

Smooth Ultimate pedals here as well...with flat nubbies...I did add some longer screws for the dead pedal....
