This add-on accessory is a must for every Spridget with a bottom hinging gas pedal. Here's why...
Original Bugeye accelerator pedals are a terrible design. They plug into a pivoting metal rod and can easily become un-plugged while driving, which is an obvious safety hazard. Once the pedal disconnects, It’s not difficult to lodge the rubber pedal on the accelerator rod, thus sticking the throttle OPEN!
The other challenge with this original design is the hinge mount requires two holes in your nice floor pan. Since it is naturally rusting and making holes on its own, it’s never fun to punch more holes if you don’t have to. Those accelerator holes can become yet another source of corrosion.
Since about 1979 I have been driving my Bugeye ‘Gumby” with just metal bar under my foot and no pedal. And on the cars the we ship to customers, we remove the pedal for safety. Even though it doesn’t look pretty, the bar has been our best solution, until now.
We are exited to offer a nice cast aluminum pad you can easily bolt into place, along with a rubber pedal pad to cover it. This is an elegant solution to an old problem. It’s easy to install and makes heel/toe shifting easy. This is an upgrade that is a winner for every early Sprite!
You get the aluminum bolt on pad, hardware to mount it and a rubber pedal pad, which you will need to install on the aluminum pad before installation.
NOTE: The star washers go in between the aluminum pedal ears and the metal accelerator rod-see photos below. These take up the space and allow for a snug fit before you tighten the bolt. Make sure to tighten the bolt so that the pedal is snug. It can float a little, but make sure to tighten the bolt sufficiently to ensure that the pedal can't flop around. Make sure to use the star washers as shown. Tighten the bolt until the star washers bite into the metal accelerator rod, even if it slightly bends the aluminum "ears" of the casting. The ears may bend slightly, but if the bolt is overtightened the ears can snap, so don't overtighten! We are not responsible for broken ears due to over tightening.

My new go-to for roadside emergencies.
Size: 58pcs, Size: 58pcs
Okay, I recently picked up this 58-in-1 tire repair kit, and I'm really glad I did. I've always been a bit nervous about getting a flat tire, especially on a long trip, and this kit has been a huge relief.
The first thing I noticed was how complete it is. It's got everything you could possibly need, from the T-handle reamer to the solid pliers. I really appreciate the feel of the tools—they're not flimsy at all. The handle has a great grip, and the spiral tip on the reamer looks like it will make it easy to clear out a puncture without a lot of hassle. The plugs themselves feel tough and durable, like they'll actually hold up.
I haven't had to use it on the road yet (thankfully!), but I did a practice run on an old tire I had. The instructions were easy enough to follow, and the whole process felt manageable. The best part is how compact the entire kit is. It all fits neatly into a little box that I can just toss in my trunk. It doesn't take up any space, and it gives me a real sense of security knowing it's there. It covers so many different vehicles, too, which is a nice bonus. It's definitely a peace-of-mind purchase that I'd recommend to anyone.

Good kit for the $$....
Size: 61pcs
Already saved me once, A good kit for the money, but if your smart, you'll add a tube of rubber cement, seals and lubes the plugs. All the foreign kits seem to not know this..?? Recommended...

61 piece - lots of what you need in a small case
Size: 61pcs
Great for mororcycle trips. I purchased the 61 piece kit in the soft case and its very small and tucks away well in my pannier. I also carry a small battery operated compressor and between the two can handle most repairs if needed. This comes with a small set of players which is a must for pulling nails, screws etc. from your tire. For the price I dont think you can do better than this kit.

Excellent quality and as advertized.
Size: 58pcs
It's a bit over packed and hard to close once opened. Too much extra stuff in the kit. W. O. B.
