ABSTRACT:
An adjustable footrest for installation on either the passenger or driver side of the driver's compartment of a vehicle includes a footrest mounting bracket for attachment to a side panel of the driver's compartment and an adjustable footrest member for attachment to the bracket. The footrest bracket as mounted in a vehicle contains a series of vertically spaced keeper slots for receiving keeper studs on the footrest member. The keeper studs have enlarged head portions for retention of the studs within selected keeper slots for determining the height of the footrest. In one embodiment of the bracket, each keeper slot has an associated enlarged opening so that the keeper studs of the footrest member can be selectively removed from one set of keeper slots and interengaged with another set for adjustment of the height of the footrest member. In another embodiment, the keeper slots are interconnected by a slideway so that the keeper studs can be slid from one set of keeper slots to another selected set for height adjustment of the footrest member, without removing such member from the bracket. The keeper slots can be of several different configurations, three of which are illustrated, including L-shaped slots, diagonally extending straight slots and keyhole-shaped slots.
