My dealer replaces those plugs with globs of butyl rubber. Not pretty, but damn functional. I had the dealer move the pedals closer when I picked up the car because I thought Beth would be driving it. She has given up that idea, so I moved them forward again. About a 1/2 hour job, taking my time.

It felt so, for the first hour. But then I was getting a cramp in both feet! Not good. Pedals are back to standard pos. now. See you in September!
in love with life. that's it.

I agree on moving the pedal position forward. I also had them close in, but no place to put my feet. However the clutch is just a bit of a stretch for me now. My pedal location holes never had any plugs, which begs the question as to whether out floor boards need drain holes (which I added early on, based on my race car experience with alloy pan floors. )

I had this problem too comet , I managed to fit a piece of very dense foam about an inch thick behind the lower backrest , that sorted it for me .

"I just crawled into the tunnel, head first." I dont have my car back to check but wouldn't you have had enough access to the pedals via the 3 sided panel under the cowl?
