Gas Pedal - Aftermarket Photos & ideas Please

I am looking at converting over to a cable style set up and getting rid of the rod on the throttle assembly.
What pedals have you folks used and what made an easy install with the motor installed already?
I would like to hear the good and the bad stories.

Thanks!!!
