yes, definitely get the ones that screw thru and when attaching them put a little loc-tite on the screw threads to preven them from loosening up on you. Mostly cosmetic, but a nice addition.

yeah i would agree, get the ones that go trough the pedals so that you never have to think about any mishaps. plus they look nice.
what kind were you thinkinkg about getting?

loss or leg room? i took out the facroty bubber crap out, and those are like double the thickness, so i 'gained leg room" i guess, although its not even worth mentioning because its millimeters were talking about here

Thinking about the ones Rennline make. As I understand it, you have to put the accelerator pedal over the existing one. Same for the dead pedal. That's where I got the idea that you lose leg room.

I have both, the snap-lock Crafter's($200) and the Ebay ones($100).
Have yet to install either. I'll try the snap lock ones first as I am toooo lazy to get the out the power drill I don't have.

The Rennline look cool because they pad the accelerator so that its not sitting behind the brake pedal... Makes having your right foor on both at the same time a piece of cake. But I never really down shift in the Boxster.

Yes, I saw the Rennlines in person at Hershey. They're very, very nice.

^I'd like a little metal cover that would go over the carpeting directly below the fuse panel.
I have worn out the carpet there somehow...looks terrible.
anyone know what's behind that? wires?, you know in case I decide to screw into that?
