stioc Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I find it strange that my 2001 Pathfinder SE with leather seats doesn't have a dead pedal (left-foot rest)? More importantly has anyone added one? I guess I should look on ebay or drive 50miles to the closest junkyard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stioc Posted May 16, 2013 Author Share Posted May 16, 2013 I didn't know they were available at all but since they were on some models at least I'm going to try to locate one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor636 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Maybe try a QX4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluewulf73 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I think my LE has a plastic cover on the dead pedal...not too sure. I'll check and either confirm or deny later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towncivilian Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I have a plastic cover on my dead pedal too. I'll take a pic later if anybody desires it. I have a 2001.5 SE cloth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devonianwalk Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Mine sounds the same as those that posted before me. Mine is nothing more than a plastic strip sewn (or molded) to the carpet. 1999.5 LE Leather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theexbrit Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 There's just a lttile thin rest which is practically useless. I've been wanting to add one for a long time, I found a cool Heep one that would fit but I lost the bookmark. I'll see if I can find it again.

So, what good did your bookmark do for ya'? Maybe the cat got a hold of it. (that's all bookmarks are good for around our house. ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no idea this was such a studied topic? In my Miata, my left foot is on the clutch. In my (auto) Pathy, my left foot is in another space continuum. I mean, I only need it to catch my fall when I'm exiting the wonderful bliss of another adventurous ride.

theexbrit Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I have to admit to liking something to push against when I'm screaming in terror on a 50 degree camber! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karmann Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 My '02 is an SE and has the dead pedal... Couldn't you "fab" one out of wood or something and cover it with some matching carpet? Like a stereo cabinet? Is it that big of an issue? ahahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverPath Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 My 300 has one but not the R50. I actually like not having it. I can stretch out in the corner of the footwell on long trips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stioc Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 wow, who knew a dead pedal discussion will get so many people piping up Agreed with thexbrit completely - also on the long drives I like having something flat to rest my foot against. I'll add this diy to my very long to-do list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devonianwalk Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 wow, who knew a dead pedal discussion will get so many people piping up Ha! When I read the thread topic I was thinking, "Yet another sensor I am unaware of?" ... This has to be the most relevant "irrelevant" thread on NPORA. Congrats Stioc!!
