I just installed mine in a 2018 and I really like position C. But it’s all about personal preference.

Have mine in B. Comfy. Try out each position before you decide. Takes only a few minutes to adjust and a lap around the block to test ride.

I have it in B and I feel it's little high to my taste. I will shift it to C and check

That was the problem I had w/ B as well. C is much better. Poor position A! Don't think I've ever heard of someone using that position.

Had to double check. I am on position C also. Tried B for a few days but found heel toe down shifts much easier in C.

I can't remember anymore. I tried it on one that was highly recommended, and didn't much like it so I went with another. I think I was on C and switched to B.

EDIT: Nevermind, found my post on it. I'll re-post here.

First tried position B, thinking it would make the most logical sense since it appears at the same height as the brake pedal. The problem is it doesn't have the same spongy give in pressure feel, and if you intend on heel-toe downshifting, it doesn't make enough since since you are engaging the brake pedal while performing that maneuver, which means it's now lower than the accelerator.

I ended up at position C, which feels best. I'm not a very successful heel-toe downshifter yet, and having not been able to practice for over a year I wasn't very much good when I tried it, but through practice I think I'll get it down. At least I'll be able to say it's possible for me to do, now.

Yes, now I am on C and it's great but may be I will remove and sell it off after using it for a week.

I felt the same way. Tried B and it was horrible. I like C for short drives, but I hate it for long drives. I have long legs, so it can get uncomfortable at times.

I feel like the OEM accel pedal is in a good position with relation to the clutch. It's just the brake pedal that is too close to the driver. I may just adjust the brake pedal and sell the Acuity spacer too.

What’s the best way to adjust the brake pedal? Does that have a spacer-type mod too?

I haven't done it yet, but I was going to reference this video:

That’s awesome. Definitely going to give that a shot.

Just installed mine on c.
I have aftermarket "3d" all weather mats and the accelerator pedal got stuck under the edge of the mat on full throttle on my way home from work. Make sure your pedal has free range of motion when installing.

I have the same mats but didn't experience that issue till date. I need to check to make sure it doesn't happen
