I have them and they are nice. The only issue is the gas pedal piece extended down too far and hit the carpet that prevented WOT. I had to trim the bottom section to fix it.

They go over top the stock rubber ones. I'm not sure how thick they are but they are strong enough to easily take the pressure applied from your foot. They come with self threading screws and are fairly easy to install.

Roushparts.com $92.44, lil expensive for just pedals, plus their short throw shifter ain't cheap either!

UPR told me they have no plans for a dead pedal. If they make one, I will buy the entire kit. I love their set, I just want it to match.

Looks nice but I think it should be a bit bigger to match the dead area there, how does it feel to rest your foot there, looks like it rests right up agains the wall. I would like it to rest in the middle of the dead area or fill the area. Which brand is that, UPR?

I thought it was a little small as well, but it holds the foot much better than the carpet does. Since you drill the holes on the bracket yourself, there is some leeway in the placement of the pedal, but only an inch or so either way. I just cut a strip from an old rubber floor mat, sized to fit the dead pedal area, and placed it under the bracket to protect the carpet from wet/dirty shoes and I'm good to go.

Edit: It's a Steeda, btw.

Look to the very far left in the picture above. It is a non usable pedal that your foot rests on. Right now, there is on there, it is just sheet metal and is covered with carpet. They are normally used to rest your left on when not using the brake or clutch.

I want a dead pedal so bad, but I am not sure I like the Steeda one. Does anyone know who has one out now, or will soon???
