this much interest!

BTW, if any of you are interested, I briefly discussed a GROUP BUY with the seller. Let me know if anybody is interested!

The real difficult part was getting behind the gas pedal. I would recommend releasing the gas pedal arm, but I couldn't figure out for the life of me how, so I improvised.

Drilling yes, I used a 7/64 drill bit to drill the plastic gas pedal and metal brake pedal. Only 4 holes in each pedal.

The dead pedal just used 4 screws that tightened up nicely by themselves, no pre-drilling.

The gas pedal was cake to drill, because it is plastic, getting my fingers behind it to tighten the bolt/washer/nut system major PITA. I had great luck using a 1/32 hole punch to hold the nut behind the gas pedal while I inserted the bolt, re improvised. It was time consuming, but the hole punch worked as a great guide.

The brake pedal is metal, so it is best if you have a good quality bit. I simply removed the original rubber cover, clamped the new AC pedal on and held it while I predrilled the holes. Real easy to attach after that.

So the tools I needed where:
7/64 Drill Bit to drill the gas and brake pedal. This gives you a nice tight hole to work with, no pun intended!!
2.5 mm Allen Key to hold the head of the bolt while tightening.
6 mm Long [deep] socket to tighten the nut.
1/32 hole punch assisted me in getting the nut behind the gas pedal. My finger just would fit.
Some lock tight applied the the bolts, just for safety.

Hope this helps!
