Haven't done the Rennline set, but did a few others which I'm sure are similar......
#1 Tip - START w/ the Brake pedal. Seems counterintuitive as it's the hardest - but it has the most obstructions on back you need to compensate for - plus it's hardened steel. However, b/c of this, you want to make it your 'set the level' pedal and then the other pedals will easily align off of. FYI - he other pedals are all plastic, drill out very easily and have very few backside obstructions.
#2 When drilling the brake pedal, use a center punch to prevent any 'bit wander'. Can use for others too but not 100% necessary as it is on brake.
#3 And speaking of bits... have a couple extra on hand as the brake pedal likely will require more than one (again, it's hardened and you'll get impatient push harder on the drill and promptly snap a bit... or three - so my friend says from experience
)
#3 Apply Loctite blue on the thread hardware when fastening if none pre-applied. Unlikely but doubt you want them coming loose while driving
Easy DIY, just be patient lining up and drilling the brake pedal - then the other 3 will go on in a snap.
Good luck
