Default 6-speed drivers, be careful.
Has anyone else noticed the sharp piece of metal or hard plastic that is about an inch above the clutch? Hurts like hell when you're wearing sandals and you keep scraping your toes against it.

I found that little sucker one day when I was wear some flip-flops. After that day, I have learned to keep my feet away from it.

I never noticed it but I did slip off the clutch when my sneakers were wet and get my foot wedged between the clutch and the bottom of the dash. That was not fun

I wear Keens, so my toes are protected.

I had to share that with you because this makes post #2000 for me. Woo-hoo!

I guess I've been lucky and never found it, I drive barefoot often.

It has scuffed the tip of my leather shoes on many occasions. I haven't hit it barefoot yet, thankfully.

Awesome sharp pieces of metal for my foot to scrape itself. I've never driven my JK anything but barefoot... now I'm gonna have to take a look for this little bugger
