I don't notice any problem with the pedal location in my hatchback.

Look into the "big foot" mod in the DIY section, maybe you can come up with a similar solution?

I thought about that a few times. Several of our local mail carriers have the right-hand-drive Subarus and Jeeps. It would be neat to have a Yaris in that configuration.

i have that problem in my hatchback to the point now that there a hole in the carpet. So i'm thinking of getting some type of rubber mat and glue over that hump so it doesn't get worst come winter.

Get some aftermarket pedals which will reposition your pedals to the way you want it. I have mine setup so heel and toe is easy.

i dont like the possition of the gas in my hatch either, I think the carpet on the hump is wearing already.

Super glue a larger piece of plastic over the existing pedal that expands the surface area. Easy fix.
