Nicoli35, I appreciate the posting! I'm 5' 2" driving a manual '14 Corolla. I'm tired of sitting nearly against the wheel. I was thinking of getting the pedalmate clutch extender and have some questions:

1. Is this the same product? (Cheaper price: http://www.discovermymobility.com/st...ers/index.html)
2. How wide is the anchor plate?
3. Does the extender ever get loose with use?

Hi! It looks like the correct item. I bought mine at http://www.creativecontrolsinc.com/p...pedalmates.htm which also has a few pictures of installed pedal mates.

I can't tell you how wide the anchor plate is, as I don't have the car any longer but it anchored perfectly for me.

It never got loose, not even a little bit. I removed it once or twice, and it will come off if needed. I actually sold the car with the pedal mate installed as I (slightly) modified it to accept racing pedal covers hehe.

On a side note, just got home to from spending labor day in Monterey and we drove our little '12 Golf TDI, that thing got nearly 500 miles between fill-ups and averaged 45 highway MPG.. plenty of low-end torque, just amazing!

Sounds good! My clutch pedal is about 2in wide, 2.5 in tall. The distance between the clutch and break pedals is about 2.5in. wide. Do you think I could install and use the pedalmate properly?

I'm afraid the pedalmate is too big and may need modification as you did with yours.

Here are my pedals:

Looks ok to me, but I'm no expert. I'd give 'em a call and ask about returns if you aren't happy with the fit.
