I would like to move my pedal box 1 inch closer to the drivers seat, I understand that this can be done however I have no idea how to adjust it - I'd really appreciate if someone can advise me on the routine and how easy / hard this is to do?
Thanks Paul

Tuscan pedal box is held in by 6 semi captive bolts that go through floor too chassis plates with nuts on underside that are normally seized. Been a few years since i have moved a pedalbox but here goes, Remove drivers carpet, remove pedalbox ally cover plate, airline or vaccum out all muck and dirt lying in bottom of pedalbox, locate the six nuts under car holding pedalbox and spray with wd-40 or similar, try carefully to crack them undone, if too much force is used too undo they can spin the semi captive bolt inside the pedalbox and bend the corners of the box and then keep spining frown Once undone carefully lift the pedalbox up an inch prize out all six semicaptive bolts and clean them up. There are already six rows of three bolt holes in chassis plates but you will need to drill fresh 6mm holes through fibreglass floor from underneath, be carefull it drills through easy, once drilled move pedalbox over new holes and drop semicaptive bolts back through and refit washers and nuts on all six bolts, use silicone sealant on old hole in floorpan, check pedal operation and refit pedalbox cover and carpet.
