Pedal pad

Here's a shot of the pedal platform and pedal shaft with a pedal pad attached.

Todd's DIY plans specify pedal pads like this, made out of 2" wide aluminum strap, but with an option of using pedal pads made by aftermarket suppliers for real cars.

Since Amos and I both drive with stocking feet, we're going to try this design first. We think the smooth surface will allow our socks to slide easily up and down on the surface as the pedals move.

If we don't like this, we can always substitute real-car pedal pads later.
