I am missing this diamond shape indentation after rust repair to the footbox.  As a result the brake pedal "lever" is touching the footbox.
My plan is to make a negative mold in MDF or so, use the nearby screw holes to locate it on the cockpit side and some long reach clamps to clamp this in place through the brake pedal/clutch pedal holes and hammer or press this shape in from the outside. Probably also keep this piece in place with a 2x4".

Anybody else had to do this or used a different method?  Is 5/16" or 8 mm (5/16 * 2.54) deep enough?

thanks,

Bert
