Clutch pedal ‘click’ noise
I’m trying to figure out where / what is making this ‘clicking’ noise. I have attached a video of the noise for reference. I’m wondering if it’s the spring, or worn grommets. Maybe it’s coming from the master cylinder? I really can’t tell where it’s coming from. I was hoping someone else has perhaps run into this issue and has a solution. Thanks.

Nobody has any clue? The closest thread I could find with this issue was this.

I'm going to try and pull the spring out and replace the plastic bushings and see if that cures it.

I really wanted to have a suggestion, but I'm stumped. I've replaced all clutch related parts in mine and can't think of what would make that noise in that area. I recently installed new clutch master and slave cylinders. Years ago I did the full clutch itself.
My only thought is one of the switches. Manuals have two switches, one at each end of the clutch pedal travel. The one closest to the dash is the cruise cancel switch (cruise also uses the brake pedal switch for this feature). The one on the firewall side is the clutch safety / start switch. Normally neither of them make any noticeable sound. I can't imagine that being the source, but that's all I've got so far.
