Footrest plate and footrest plate mounting assembly

A footrest plate system, comprising:

• a footrest plate having a first side and an oppositely facing second side;
• first and second clips extendable from the second side, each of the first and second clips including a rectangular shaped portion having a first parallel pair of sides longer than a second parallel pair of sides;
• a protrusion extending from the second side, the protrusion centrally positioned between the first and second clips, the protrusion including a rectangular shaped body having a first pair of parallel walls longer than a second pair of parallel walls, the first pair of parallel walls oriented transverse to the first parallel pair of sides of the first and second clips;
• a workpiece having first, second and third rectangular-shaped mounting apertures, the first mounting aperture operable to receive the rectangular shaped portion of the first clip and the second mounting aperture operable to receive the rectangular shaped portion of the second clip;
• and
• a length of the first parallel pair of sides of the first and second clips is greater than a width of the second pair of parallel walls of the protrusion;
• wherein the third aperture is centrally positioned between the first and second apertures, and is oriented to receive the protrusion, engagement of the protrusion with the third aperture being operable to substantially prevent rotation of the first and second clips relative to the workpiece.
