Clutch Pedal Height Adjustment?

Does anyone know if it is possible to adjust the clutch pedal height? I am not talking about the friction point, i mean move the whole pedal forward.

I am having a hard time finding a "comfortable" position sitting and i think this has part to do with it. If i move the seat far enough forward to depress the clutch all the way, i feel like my other foot is scrunched against the gas pedal. This causes embarrassing lurching when i hit a bump and my foot "bounces" on the throttle

It seems like the pedal is positioned further back than it was on my Jeep or GTI...

Someone makes a pedal adapter that attaches to the lever and moves it forward.

i just got mine in the mail today. took 5 min tops to install. heating up the rubber cover will make getting it back on super easy. it made a world of difference. only put about 20 miles on it so far but for the first time i wasn't moving my seat back and forth trying to find a comfortable spot.

Awesome. I just managed to get mine installed too... though without a heat gun and my wife told me that her hairdryer is NOT to be used as a tool. LOL

Only played with it in the garage, but can't wait to see what it is like on the way to work in the morning.
