Does anyone have a photo of an after marker recessed TM pedal on a 170 DC? Also, does anyone have any information or pics about a deck extension for the same boat?

Justin,
I have one on my 170dc. Great add on item, makes for a more comfortable day on the water.
I purchased it on ebay, paid around $80 for it. The one I got was made from aluminum and not the plastic like most you see. I can take a photo with my phone and text it to you if you want. Took about 2 hours to install, really simple but getting the fiberglass shavings out of the carpet was tough. As for the deck extension, I made one from thick marine plywood. I do not have access to a welder so I used treated 2x4's for the frame under the extension. Bolted them through each rod box and the front wall. I know that wood was not the best material, however it would be easy to replace if I need to and wood was something I could handle easily during the build. Love the extension too! Hope this helps.

The deck extension link under "more" doesn't seem to work.

Sent the picture to you Justin. They still have them on ebay for around 75 plus 15 shipping. I think I purchased mine from R & R design. Some guy has one that is stainless steel for 60.00, may be great if he did quality work. Hope this helps.

I built my own recessed pedal assy a couple of weeks ago for my 1993 190DC. I love it. If you want to see some pics look here...

It's a thread I started on a local Bass fishing website. Photos of the build and installation.
