I've installed these, but the feedback from PWebRPH pretty much covers it. Just a couple more comments:

A 90 degree attachment to your drill will help a LOT.

I'd get new mounting hardware. I wasn't too keen on the stuff that came from Taiwan and bought my own at a hardware store. From what I've seen most people buy and use their own bolts and nuts.

Very Nice

I am going to give this a go as I have been staring at my aluminum pedals for about a week or so

I presume I have the same set as well. Good snag

Only tips I would suggest are:

-Start w/ the brake pedal. Yes it's the hardest (physically and otherwise) but it's also the one w/ the least forgiveness. You'll need to line that one up perfectly and can then align the clutch pedal off of it. If you do clutch first, you could run into clearance issues on the nuts for mounting the brake pedal.

-If your hardware didn't (or even if it did) come w/ lock washers, I'd still hit the threads of the machine bolts w/ some locktite. Definitely don't want thos suckers coming loose while driving.

Good luck and enjoy!

I just installed the complete Rennline set very nice. I like to move the pedals to where I want them not line them up perfectly. Just my two cents. I'll have pics soon. or you can see at rennline.com.
