adjustable pedals in a '02 f-150

Does anyone have or installed the power adjustable pedals in there '02 f-150? I have a '02 xlt with the "sport" pakage. I also have a 4' 10" wife that drives with her toes. I was going to move the seat mounts up but the movable peddles might be better

What would you like to know about them?

what would be easier, to move the seat forward (move tracks) or install movable pedals from a "donor" vehicle?

It would be cheaper to move the seat mounts as long as there is enough room for you with the seat all the way back when your using the truck.
Take into account getting in and out with less space between the steering wheel and seat.
Also being to close to the wheel due to air bag deployment.
Ideally to be correct the elbows should be at close to 90 degrees angle for max steering control.
I don't have an issue with the pedals but do tend to move the seat everytime I get in or out as well as move the steering wheel all the way up.
Also think about what the seat-'back' angle will do in all this.
The pedal option begins to look like it solves all the issues.
Look it over good before trying to move the seat mounts.
Good luck.

Thanks bluegrass 7! the airbag issue is my main concern with the wife, so i thought moving the pedels would be the best bet. as it is she drives with her toes which is cool 'cause she cant get to WOT but cant get FULL brakes if she needs them either.

Yes it a safety issue with her.
Do the factory install.
The truck is over 5000 lbs so she will need to be able to apply full-on braking in a hurry when ever needed.
There is a motor operated jack screw that mounts under the dash plus all the movable hardware and a rocker switch on the lower part of the dash panel on the door side.
Good luck.
