been playing around with the clutch pedal mod today, very fiddly, helps if your not fat and have orangatang arms :lol: thank goodness my mates are normal size! :bonkers:
after looking at both pedals now, only difference is you need to drill 2 holes in the original pedal but need to grind off the metal sticking out on the left as no need to be there. unless theres a tiny detail on the new pedal that i cant see :oops:

im now relating more to this thread now..
