When this is removed, there are three large holes in the carpet that need to be covered (my opinion) to make the install look good. This dead pedal isn't wide enough to cover the holes completely.

The dead pedal I bought was wide enough & came with double-sided tape for install. And if you look close, you'll see a small portion of a carpet opening at the bottom that still didn't get covered. But with floor mats placed in the footwell, it doesn't show.

Here's the link to the I purchased. CLICK
This dead pedal is a dead loss, I took a chance that it might be OK but no it will not fit well at all. I have OEM carpets and I would have to cut of the part of the carpet that goes up the dead pedal area. The right angle and shape makes it a dead loss,it would look like crap. Mine had Velcro and that was useless and I told the maker that it was cr@p.
