Default any help with pedals?

hey today i bought my first car a 1.1 saxo i really like the car its certainly a bit quicker than the polo that i had been borrowing off a family member but i have a bit of a problem with the pedals because i am big and the pedals are quite small and squashed up. I was wondering whether there are any aftermarket pedals anyone could reccomend to give me a bit more leverage as my foot either hits the break and acclerator or the accelarator and the wheel arch and also could anyone gimme a brief description on how to go about changing these components.

cheers guys

Not exactly the answer your looking for but my advise is just get used to them, it doesn't take long to get used to them!

I have size 12 feet and have to drive with big steel toe cap boots on almost daily and I do not have a problem with it
