Mazda Miata MX-5 NC Pedal Stopper

thingiverse

This is a Mazda Miata MX-5 NC (2005-2015) clutch and brake pedal stopper. The original stoppers tend to disintegrate with age - mine lasted about 10 years. Mazda does not list this as an individual part, making it almost impossible to find a replacement. I've had no luck trying to find something generic that fits, such as an M5 bolt and nut. Unfortunately, the stoppers for NA/NB are 1mm too small. You should print: two or three stoppers for the clutch (more on this later), one stopper for the brake, and a mini tool/wrench. The mini wrench is necessary because it's impossible to get a regular wrench into the space under the pedals. You will also need: an M4x12 hex bolt, an M4 nut, and optional M4 washers. These are recommended but not essential. It's crucial not to over-fasten the bolt/nut - finger-tight is sufficient. Some cars have only two stoppers for the clutch pedal, while others have three. Look under your footwell to determine what you need. I've printed these with PLA and 40% infill, which seems sturdy enough. Although I haven't had it long enough to test durability, they appear to hold up well. The footwell does get a bit warm, but not hot enough to deform PLA.
