Steps:

Approx time Expert: 5 mins / Noob: 10mins
1. the deadpedal should come with screws, you want to get a drill might not actually even need one
2. place the dead pedal where you want it, and carefully drill into the carpet.
careful not to go in too deep, there are sound deadening materials underneath

3. done

No plastic dead pedal block on the 2011? That's sad. I'm sure my carpet would have worn pretty badly by now without the plastic dead pedal.

Looks good. I'm going to attempt a wider, thicker one that bends over the side... will keep you posted!

My first mod was RDX antenna but now the carpet is showing wear...

Finished the dead pedal fab and install this weekend. I used the front cover plate off of an old Dell server and cut out a section to fit.



Cool, OK or Ghetto?

^hm, for me it might've looked better if you made it a bit longer. where do you live that your foot well is so muddy?

Thanks for the feedback. I live near Toronto, Canada and we're going through a spring thaw/rainy spell. My driveway is swamp right now!

For who'd like measurments it is 7" tall and 5" wide (bottom).

I made some revisions to the dead pedal and this is the finished product:







I really like the fact that it wraps around the corner approaching the clutch to protect the edge of the carpet.

I also added some TRD badging to the dash (beside Bluetooth), the console just below the shifter and on the steering wheel below the horn as seen in the last photo!

Not to bring this one back from the deadspace... BUT I found a different pedal style, bit cheaper and free shipping: http://customtc.com/dpedal.htm

I'm really not sure if I'm going to find pedals that completely match... I'm even thinking about painting/coating that dead pedal black so it shows up less.

KidJustin

^ not a bad idea

johndeo11

im thinking to paint it red and buy a red pedals to match it... mmmm

not to bring this back from the dead, but how is everyone's the dead pedal holding since you guys drill into the carpet?

Been just over a year since installation. No problems so far. Since the pedal is mostly for resting your foot on its not much of a problem unless you are trying to pry it apart.
