Abstract: A platform for use with a temporary or auxiliary brake in a vehicle. An upper portion of the platform has a raised wall and stabilization flanges. The temporary or auxiliary brake is mounted on the raised wall. The raised wall is spaced from a floorboard of the vehicle. The stabilization flanges engage the floorboard to stabilize the upper portion. An extension plate, joined with a specialized and flexible weld, extends from the upper portion to provide increased stabilization of the platform and maintain the platform and the temporary or auxiliary brake in position on the floorboard of the vehicle, allowing the platform to fit virtually any year, make, or model of vehicle. The use of the platform and the temporary or auxiliary brake does not require drilling or deformation of the vehicle.
