Do poeople have pics of their solutions?
Thanks

It isn't on a Se7en-style car but I have one fitted to my race car - see here:
http://www.obpltd.com/help/file/13-accelerator-fitting
for pretty much what I did. In sum, remove accelerator pedal from pedal box, pop onto pillar drill and drill a hole about halfway through to roughly
the size of your cable stop. Hacksaw a slot from the end of the pedal into the hole you just drilled. I also had a distinctive ridge on my cable
stop so lockwired it to the pedal - seems to work. Shall find a pic later to explain better!

from experience I have found that the cable need to pivot easily on the end of the pedal else they soo fatigue and break so I used a small clevis pin
attached to the pedal with an M4 bolt with a nyloc holding the bolt in place but not clamping the clevis. An "L" shaped piece of 3mm ally
holds the cable outer.
Not a particularly helpful agle in the picture but gives the general idea.
