Floor matt accelerator pedal intereference

[MomoJeep]

So I have an aftermarket carpet PLUS these Rugged Ridge floor mats.. REASON: I want to keep my wet boots from letting water get to the floor pan sheet metal. And contain the mud/salt/snow etc. But now my accelerator pedal does not go all the way down. And solutions other than cutting out the floor mat? ( because I want it under my accelerator foot..)

Any way to shorten the accelerator cable or modify the pedal?

Thanks!

Buy floor liners. Thin and way better than floor mats for mud/snow.

The factory pedal has a sliding “stop” on the end of the cable. It’s pretty easy to take a slit piece of vacuum line and pull the cable through the stop, and put the slit piece of vacuum line over the cable, effectively shortening it.
