I have a KB3 I'm trying to prepare for safety inspection in Ontario and can't find any grommets to seal the floor around the clutch, brake, and accelerator pedals. Do these exist somewhere or what else do people do if anything?

Someone may correct me, but I don't believe my KBS5 had one. I believe it is just a slit in the floor mat.

I have had 14 L and /or R pickups. Each one of them came with a 1.5" round rubber disc slipped over the pedal shafts. The rubber disc is pressed against the underside of the floor when the pedals are not depressed. Our 1940 Ford had a similar situation. This is slowly that can be made at home. Making the seal pretty is always important, but, the seals are out of sight.
Easy stuff.
