Escort pedal box.

Sorry me again about a pedal box.

Has anyone utilised the mk2 escort box as a floor mounted box? Either by using the whole thing or just the pedals.

Photo added in my photo section dood...
Basically, used pedals and shaft from original box, cut a pipe for a distance piece between the pedals.
Bored a hole through the clutch pedal for the clutch cable and used a cap screw to secure it. fitted a return spring onto the chassis at the rear of the pedals.
Pictures don't show too much detail, but i can have a bash at drawing it if u want.
Cheers J
