clutch pedal

I bought these from MSA. Bought them a couple years ago before I knew of zcardepot. 

They sell them individually also, but I wanted all new ones so I bought the set.

Oh.  I've never heard of it.  Thank you for answering.

Have a good night.

Hi all,

Probably due to poor installation, the zip ties fell off.  So I am wondering if it is feasible to get a larger pedal, with it having more area off to the left?  That is where my foot slips off.  Or, Mickey Mouse one out of a piece of wood (or something else?), covered by the grip tape Site mentioned?  

I have noticed 2 things.  First, tennis shoes are no good, as the sole extends beyond the edge of the shoe.  That causes space problems for me.   Second, the thick soles prevent the actual touch/feel where the pedal is located.  Another problem for me.  My solution is to get shoes that do not extend beyond the foot, and also the soles are thin enough to "feel" the pedal.  My thought is to try out my leather Indian moccasins.

Any ideas regarding the enlarged pedal will be very welcome.

Thanks again folks.

I finally found some grip tape that will serve me well I think.  

I tried some from the hardware store, but felt like it is not rough enough, it has worn down already.  

This tape is X-Coarse Anti Slip Tape High Grip Adhesive Backed.  It was the coarsest I could find, and cheaper than the full skateboard size.  It is 50mm X 1 meter, so I'll not have to cut it out, just trim it off.  I ordered it from the UK.  I have a pair of shoes that work perfect, and I plan to put a matching piece if the tape on the ball of the foot, to the front edge of the shoe.  Then just wear the left shoe, using it against the pedal that is covered with the same tape.  And changing the shoe when I get out of the car.  I do believe I will not slip at all that way.

Posting this for the several who offered ideas, to let you all know the latest.  More later on how effective this is.

Glad you found that, should work great!

You can imitate the old tough guys and strike a match off the bottom of your shoe.

You could always try larger pedal cover sets which are quite inexpensive and can be purchased at any autoparts store or Ebay. Some are really funky but there are decent sporty ones that actually look good and will increase your pedal surface area and grip.

Thank you, I'll have to check for that!

Courtesy nissan had them sold as a set(brake, clutch, accell and foot rest) on their web site. But now they don't show anything older than '84. Might have been about $16 for the set.
