I'd remove it or it'll look like crap. Just always remind any passengers (and yourself) never to put anything, especially the seat belt buckles, on the console.

Just a hunch. Have you checked the back of the pedal to be sure that the neopreem (sp?) liner is still intact and sliding along the metal arm properly. This can cause the pedal to bind.

It's amazing that the drive shaft even stayed in place all those years. Probably would have broken the tail of the trans. and come flying out eventually.

Talk about an accident waiting to happen!...

Believe it or not, 50%...give or take, of most electrical issues are usually ground related. It's natural to concentrate on a power source but, a good ground is as equally important as the power.

Haven't you watched any of the auctions in the last 10/20 years?
