Bruce,
Your 4th pedal observation reminds me of a wonderful line from one of =
Victor Borge=E2=80=99s wonderful piano routines . . . he sits at the =
piano, looks down and sees three pedals. He turns to the audience and =
says =E2=80=9CWho do they think I am=E2=80=9D? =F0=9F=98=8A

Hi, Al. I hope you=E2=80=99re well. The DWR pedals mount to the =
standard holes in the arms once the stock pedals are removed. However, =
as I recall the gap between the ears or tabs on the DWR pedals was not =
large enough and required some filing to widen.
=20
Yes, once the grip tape started coming off the aluminum box I built, I =
decided to fabricate a new dead pedal to match the other DWR pedals. =
It=E2=80=99s a flat plate, 1/8=E2=80=9D I believe, large enough to fit =
under the dip switch mount with about 6=E2=80=9D of angle iron welded =
perpendicular to it at the top right (inboard) corner. A piece of, as I =
recall, 1=E2=80=9D x =C2=BD=E2=80=9D flat bar forms the down arm, =
attached with a =C2=BD=E2=80=9D spacer to the angle iron by a nylock. =
This allows me to tow up the pedal to access the dip switch. I recall =
that I had to do a fair amount of grinding to relieve the arm to fit the =
pedal. I ground the lower corner of the flat bar until I got a =
satisfactory angle and position of the pedal.
=20
I never did a plan; I just started building up the idea and did a lot of =
trial and error fitting. I can crawl under there and take some rough =
measurements, if you=E2=80=99d like.
=20
And it=E2=80=99s always fun at shows watching people trying to figure =
out what the 4th pedal is for!
=20
BTW, with the COVID-19 fallout, my nephew=E2=80=99s start date at Ford =
has been pushed back to September. He=E2=80=99s going to summer in Des =
Moines with his parents once he graduates next month.

Hi Bruce =E2=80=93 maybe you can share with us how you did this:
[1] Do the pedal pads mount to the stock pedal arms, or require =
modification? I was also going to ask for the source, but they appear to =
say =E2=80=9CDWR=E2=80=9D on them, so maybe I already know =F0=9F=98=8A; =
[2] A while back you shared the look of your sisal mats. That pic shows =
that you refined your dead pedal from the prior aluminum box to =
something better =E2=80=93 how does the dead pedal work?
=20
----------------
All the best,

Bruce,
=20
In your second photo I see what appears to be a Paddy Hopkirk pedal =
extension. I had one on my 1961 Austin-Cooper many years ago. =20
Being bigger than the stock accelerator size, does it improve things =
=E2=80=93 like heel and toeing? =20
I assume it fits neatly over the pedal as it appears, from memory, to be =
the same size as in the Mini Cooper.

Interesting way to flood the dash. When you said under the dash, I =
thought you meant in the foot wells. Two projects for me:
1. I decided to add a clock to my auxiliary panel below the heater =
control, which already held my ammeter and switches for the fog and spot =
lamps. Extra credit for identifying the inspiration for the design of =
auxiliary panel. Hint: It is Healey related.
2. I'm fabricating a rally stopwatch panel.
