floor jambs

[Per Lindgren]

Nah, lotsa other cars have them too, i.e. the Peugeots we drive at work. If the
rubber mat positions itself in the correct, wrong position, the throttle will
stick to the floor when you release it to clutch and change gear. Boy that 1.9
diesel scream when that happen :-D
