yup.  don't bother trying to weld the nubs back on.  just go to a more modern, and more effective solution.....

someone was marketing a hinge that welded flat to the floorboard I just can't remember where I saw it

It's easy to redo the pedal and use a bearing behind it; secure the bottom to the floor.  Check information on this site.  I'll send you a free bearing.

There is also this option:

Don't know if a lot of you have seen this before, but I have one in my 2002 and I absolutely love it. Sure it's not the best looking product out there, but it works perfectly and is buttery smooth. 

 

If I had an unlimited restoration budget, I think I would upgrade to the IE pedal though.

these are all great options, however being over in the UK the postage makes them slightly more expensive than i would have wanted. 

 

i think i will go with the door hinge solution, not sure how i will get the bearing to fit as at the moment its without and i just have a rod which is holding the pedal up and springs which allow movement and return. 

 

always did think my pedal was slightly incorrect and i can see now from your examples that mine has been a bit of a bodge job and never worked properly.

A few years ago, there was a guy in the UK reproducing the original floor mount. Can't remember his name, but you may find him by asking on the UK forum.
