Clutch pedal

So I had my head under the dash today trying to fix the brake light sensor (which is an absolute pain in the arse) and I noticed this bracket that looks welded to the back of the clutch pedal.



Is this something that's been done on the dodgy? Is there something factory missing?

No its a clutch support bracket altho it should bolt on

Let me see if i can find a picture
I think i am right in saying the later cars had them fitted as standard but the earlier ones did not

Cheers johnny, if that's right mine is an early model so maybe it's been added at some point

Yeah i made aload of these up i have to say your one isnt very good in the sense of adjusting pedal hieght etc the ones i made use both the holes on the colum and pedal hieght bolt ..still if it works it works

Certainly not as elegant as mr nomads brackets but suppose it doing same job but just looks bit of a rushed job shall we say.
Was the later oem bracket same idea as what you done nomad ? assuming so as never seen anything much different.

Yeah it does look abit rushed but seems to be doing the job at the moment. It was just when I saw it and it looked horrid, I figured it must be something that's been added at some point

I was late for work this morn finding that post for you as i am bad with pictures and links. Lets just say its my (REP)utation lol

The oem brackets are slightly different to the ones i made as they have a return piece above the pedal wich i think they did for extra strength but the brackets i did are twice as thick so i kept it more simple as didnt see the need for it ...

Ah I see . thanks for the pic link mr nomad .

Thanks johnny and of course this forum is more important than work anyway however I'd hate to think your reputation is damaged so I better help you out

Pimping for rep points is against forum rules johnny straight to the naughty corner ...

Err no pimping here thats just your southern mind. All i done was hit the caps lock while typing you know me and computers lol

Mmm mr johnny, the use of parentheses in your sentence would suggest mr nomads pimping charge is valid & just charge.
Did wonder why you had typed like that but now I understand :-)
