I see a trip to the local Home Depot also. It should cost me about $2

@enjoyminutemaid Did you use any spacers or just the rubber stop itself? I've never trained myself to not press the clutch pedal all the way to the floor, so I think this could be a great mod for me. I did however adjust my clutch pedal height, still above the height of the brake pedal.

Just bought mine! How many of the spacers did you use?

I just bought this and installed it (it's a PIA if you have big fingers, but still less than 10 min). If you are the kind of manual driver who typically pushes the clutch all the way to the floor every time you shift - as opposed to only pushing it as far as necessary - then get this and install it. I am in love with the difference it makes. I know it seems silly in theory, and it's a lot of money for what it is, but I really like mindlessly pushing the clutch to the floor and getting quick, consistent engagement.

I didn't use any of the spacers. Don't think it would be a good idea with oem clutch.

@enjoyminutemaid Could you post the instructions that came with the works kick clutch pedal stop? Or could someone else post a DIY. The only site that sells the kit comes out to over $40 shipped, pretty crazy. I went to Home Depot and tried to do it myself but the parts I got aren't ideal and I was killing myself trying to install it, and it didn't work. Any help?

I bought mine from 86 industries.... Pretty sure I got ripped off. Haven't heard anything in two weeks

He got banned from the forums for shady business practices and false promises. You probably did.

enjoyminutemaid · 03-03-2014, 08:41 PM

Damn, I guess I got in before the lock on that guy. Even at $40 it would still be worth it to me, regardless of its home depot origins. Maybe contact Works directly?

tomaszjanczak · 03-03-2014, 08:52 PM

That is what I did. I ordered from them today. $35 shipped.

Home depot and Lowe's don't have the exact rubber stopper, but a quick browse on McMaster-Carr would get you what you need.

subiestyle · 03-03-2014, 10:36 PM

got any pics or diy to how to post this up?

tomaszjanczak · 03-04-2014, 08:05 PM

I'll try to post something up once I get mine.

enjoyminutemaid · 03-04-2014, 09:32 PM

There really isn't much to it as it's basically just a bolt with that goes through a hole and you put a nut on the back end to secure it, but you will find things much easier if you can figure out a way to pin the clutch to the floor but still have two free hands.

subiestyle · 03-04-2014, 11:54 PM

which hole does it go through?
