Default Anyone repace their pedals?

I'm looking for suggestions on pedal replacement to make it easier to heel/toe. I think a wider gas pedal would solve the problem. I want to be able to brake with the left side of my foot and roll my ankle to blip. Currently the gas pedal is a bit too far away from the brake pedal. I have to rotate my heel out to blip, and when I do my knee hits the steering wheel. BTW I'm around 6'-1" and wear 10-1/2 size Piloti's. Any and all suggestions are appreciated. TIA

There is a difference between replacing the pedals and getting those ones that bolt on over the stock ones. I know a couple people have used the bolt-ons for the sole (pun) purpose of making it easier to heel-toe. If you don't mind bolt-ons, there's a huge range of choices.

I don't know of anyone who as done a real replacement.

Can you point me in the right direction for the "bolt-ons" you speak of?

When we xcrossed Fiats in the 70's, I had great luck with pedals from a '49 Ford. And yes, they were available new from the dealer. They are a little bigger, sticky rubber so you don't slip, and had a threaded stud sticking out the back. Just drilled a hole in the stock pedal, screw on and go. Used them for 6 years, and they worked perfectly.

I installed this gas pedal today (actually the RAZRP43 which is a bit wider than the one in the link). Seems to fit pretty good, looks good and is inexpensive. It's wider than stock so I should be able to heel/toe easier. I'll try it out later today.
