Does it have a bracket in the centre attaching it to the cowl? You should have some welting between the body and chassis I believe.

I have been through the whole car and have it fastened as good as can be but over a bad pot hole the dash "moves". I know that its not a new car but the design is wrong, fiberglass is weak and must never be used as a supporting device.
A pedal assembly bolted to 3/8" thick fiberglass foot box! I don't consider that safe, besided the extra weight! I was little dissappointed at some of the engineering of the ccx or lack of. The original car was nothing special as an engineering exercise but if your going to make a copy or replica, contemporary should of done it right.
