DIY: Adding a dead pedal / foot rest to your car

A simple and easy DIY that can easily be adopted for any car.

BHPian Leoshashi has added a dead pedal to the driver's footwell in his Maruti XL6. The dead pedal was sourced as a part of the Ciaz's carpet.

Since he did not want to use any adhesive directly on the carpet, Leoshashi used Velcro strips to hold the carpet in place. Araldite adhesive was used to paste the Velcro to the dead pedal. The dead pedal was then simply placed in the footwell.

The dead pedal can also be easily removed for cleaning.

A well-placed dead pedal goes a long way in making a long drive more comfortable and reduces overall fatigue while driving.

Thanks to BHPian Leoshashi for sharing this with other enthusiasts.
