just wondering if anyone has removed their dead pedal before, whether it be temporary or permanent. The reason i am asking is because as a big guy at 6'3", a couple more inches in leg room will make a world of a difference. I just wanna know if its ugly behind there or if i need to mount some sort of beauty plate to cover up stuff.

Don't know what a dead pedal is? the foot rest/plate thing?

Is yours black plastic one that's screwed on or is it part of the carpet? IIRC on my 2000, there was a threaded bolt behind it

I wonder if it would be possible to manually adjust the power seat to move back further. I guess it would be just easier to remove the dead pedal. I too have leg room problem...and I am not as tall as 6'3".

Lou,

is there anything underneath that I would need to cover up if I want to leave it off?

There will be two small metal brackets for the fasteners.
