How to Modify the Pedals of a Jaguar E-Type?

Model: Jaguar Xk MK 2 - Years 2006-2014
Part: Checks and maintenance

Originally, as proposed by the manufacturer, the pedals of cars can be quite narrow for the foot's resting position, and one might prefer to make a modification. A good suggestion is provided by the video guide presented here, where a metal plate is applied to each of the aforementioned pedals to achieve a wider stance, mounted using pins, and then covered with rubber. This modification is not only applicable to the Jaguar E-Type but can also be made on any other vehicle.
