Sure. Easy to find on oempl.us. Link below.

Note that $129 price is for just the brake & gas. The dead pedal is an add-on for $20.
I just hope this dead pedal is an easy fit, and doesn't suffer the TT tab issue.<ul><li><a href="http://oempl.us/product_info.php?products_id=33&osCsid=1f0afb9 5d0df8587ead18765154e26fe">Pedal set</a></li></ul>

Yeah - glued my tab back on too. Much cleaner install. I used...
Devcon's High Strengh Titanum Epoxy. It's like liquid plastic. I think it holds up to 3000lbs. It set up in 2 minute and totally dried in a few hours. It will never come off.
Pedal snapped in place and the bottom holds close to the floor like the factory pedal.
Silver_Patrone: Why did you use the factory tab. Did you butcher the TT pedal's tab when removing? I just used the original pedal for alinment never removed its tab.

An alternate solution...
- Remove the tab(and discard)
- Use pop rivets to secure a large patch of velcro(loop side) to the aluminum plate behind the carpeting(since the adhesive backing won't stick to the carpet). I think used 6 pop rivets equally spaced over velcro patch.
- Attach the corresponding patch of velcro(hook side) to the back of the dead-pedal.
Mine has been installed since Feb. and it hasn't worked loose yet.
