    Automatic Pedal Box for Electric Conversion

    I am looking for a pedal box from an automatic car. I need to modify it as part of my conversion to electric drive (Tesla Model S motor). I'll be replacing the accelerator pedal with the 'fly-by-wire' pedal from a Tesla Model S. I have a manual box, however I really don't want to chop it up as would be needed for the conversion.

    I had considered a swap previously, but in this case I want to buy an automatic box first, make sure I can modify it sufficiently well, and later I'll put my manual box and linkage set up for sale. I don't need the automatic gear selector box - the electric conversion is push button gear selection.

    Thanks
    Jeff

    You could try to read the end of this thread and once you figure it out, make that person an offer on theirs: http://dmctalk.org/showthread.php?16...-Mattglas-quot

    Sounds like between Matt and Josh there is an extra automatic pedal box involved in this mess here:

    I did notice the other thread... any way I can reliably get a automatic pedal box is good with me. If you've got one let me know.

    There's a guy advertising some parts on Craigslist near Fort Lauderdale, FL including an automatic pedal box. I think I have seen him post on here also, but can't remember his username.
