I've got a Lokar knockoff that should sit and work like the stock pedal that has the cable on the outside of the firewall.

This being the 240 dollar real deal but I didn't pay near that for the as my dad used to say "almost as good" unit that probably came from Hoffman group.

The main thing well beyond appearance is that the gas pedal has to be comfortable to drive with. It doesn't matter how great looking it is if it gives you cramps in your leg, ankle or foot or is uncomfortable to drive with.

I think I have the pedal out of a 76 Mustang II that I scrapped out in the truck now. That was after a half dozen other pedals over the years one lasting one day before I took it back out and threw it in the trash barrel.

I think this is the cheaper one that I bought off Ebay quite a while ago eBay item number:313768029638
