Make em black and I'm in!

Maybe include a floor button for activating the hood mounted sub machine guns... }

As far as the dead pedal mount angle goes it should more or less be the same as the gas pedal right?

Let me know if the test / fit up truck doesn't work out, I am in Portland and can drop my truck off for the measuring and fit up. Shoot me an email.

bikeme brought his truck over today. Chris and Tristan have spent all day taking measurements.

And Jordan is taking a break form making Stubbies to get his photo taken with the SVT.

Here is how one of the guys from the Z did it with a pedal from a 90's mustang. Personally, I think it is too small. I think you would be making a mistake by not anchoring it to the floor. If you are running hard you are going to want some real meat in that pedal

I disagree on the mount. A well designed dead pedal would NOT require drilling holes in the truck to mount it. That's why I haven't bought one yet. In my not so humble opinion, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the Raptor that requires drilling holes in it. And I am sure as hell not going to drill holes in it just to mount a dead pedal.

^I guess I don't think the Raptor is so special that it can't be improved. I'm not afraid to drill, weld, or cut. Maybe 2-sided tape will work for you.

Not everything is going to be plug and play i don't mind drilling a few hole just as long as it's not in the floor.

I have no concerns over drilling holes, done is several times already. I would prefer a mount that does not require cutting the floor mat, just from a function perspective, keeping the mat whole will keep water and mud and crud out of the carpet.

I would like one that;
1) Is like the one posted here that mounts behind the carpet
2) One that is solid so that when I put weight on it offroading it's solid
3) I prefer black
4) I'd like a non-slip finish or the dimples, or perhaps the rubber studs like the ones on Custom Aluminum Vehicle Pedals - ULTIMATE PEDALS
5) A raptor logo is desirable as long as it's not too pimp
