Broken clutch pedal?

Check it out, it takes like 2 minutes to pull it off. My 2004 had a broken pedal, slapped on a used one and everything was resolved (well, the trans problems). Or, if it is broken, you can also easily weld it. It isn't the pedal itself, but the shitty multi-layer mounting bracket that separates and tears the metal.

the clutch pedal bracket is shit. My first one broke and was replaced by Mazda. The new one broke right after the warranty expired. While its true I beat the shit out of it, I still say that a reinforcement bracket is the way to go with that thing.
