Anyone do anything about the pedals placed way to the right?, Ergonomics is more noticeable with tight bucket seats... Options

Since I have them out and need to locate an e-throttle and hydraulic clutch, I was thinking of moving them a little to the left. I realize there's not much room with the wheel well. I was also thinking of moving the steering wheel.

...not that I have alot of time to do so (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)

Probably live with it, many of my sports cars were canted.

Felix - I have a "bum" right hip and when I first installed my Corbeaus I couldn't help but notice how much the side of the seat dug into it just trying to drive it around. So, I measured away and realized the whole mess of the 914 - the pedals and stock seat mount straight and the steering column is angled. So, you don't really have to move the steering column....

I moved the seats inboard about 1.5" (both sides for symmetry, just make sure you really like your passengers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ), then I removed the steering column and oblonged three of the four mount holes (sorry I don't have pics, but would be obvious to figure out). I left the front, left hole alone and used that as my new pivot. I oblonged the other three enough to allow the steering wheel to pivot around to parallel with the dash. It lined up really well with the seats, and the pedals felt MUCH better.

As for the steering rod, just need a die-grinder. I marked where the retaining bolt would slide thru on the rose-joints and die-ground a relief just like the stock piece has already. I still had plenty of splines to be safe and drove the car that way everyday for 4 or 5 years before starting the V8 car you have seen in progress.

edit - btw I made some simple aluminum plate brackets that mounted to the stock rail in the stock location and mounted the seats offset on the brackets.
