We tried various footrests before we realised the seat was too deep. Problem solved by a four inch cushion behind driver. But it needs to be firmly strapped down.

I am only 5.1, and have a problem reaching the front panel, my husband made me a foot rest from some leftover wood and a rubber car mat. Does not affect the brake pedals, or the balance of the vehicle.

I had the same problem and purchased a footrest from aaequestrian.co.uk. You may also have to have an extension on the brake pedal which a fellow competitor who is engineer sorted for me. Beware of altering your position on the vehicle as you might affect the balance and stability.

I have a Hartland TopSport. I think I would sit more comfortably if I had a footrest. At the moment I have to stretch my legs to reach the front board and feel secure.

Does anybody know of supplier for a footrest or has anybody had the same problem and found a better solution?
