I have my MKI modified so my 5'1" wife can drive it, FFR seat track. Yesterday we did some crusin' and I realized I need to modify the passenger side foot box for my 6'4" frame can sit there. Who offer's the foot box mod kit? Also, anyone extend the length of the box to match the driver side? The face of my MKI foot box is about 8-9 inches from the 4-into-4 headers and it appears there is ample room to make the box longer. Thanks for any ideas and tips.

By the way, my wife can really drive our Cobra and LOVES doing so.

This PS FB expansion will give you plenty of room in every direction! extended, widened, and lowered!

I HIGHLY recommend it! Little bit of cutting and bending and you've got a totally different PS FB.
Still drilling but fabbing too! (http://thefactoryfiveforum.com/showthread.php?2396-Still-drilling-but-fabbing-too!)

Here's the difference between the mk4 original FB and the new one. Pretty significant, and smoothes out the left leg transition too.

Here's the difference on an mk3.

I did something similar on my mk3.1. Some pics and info here (as well as my dead pedal.) I think this required 3 pieces of 24"x24" aluminum from aircraftspruce.
