I'll join you, I've got the pedals in a box in my trunk. I tried for 30 minutes with no succes, only bloody fingers to show for it.

If you guys need help, hit me up.
The pedals are fairly easy to install... if you don't hit me up, just remember: boil some water, take the water off the stove, and drop the brake and clutch pedal covers in for about five minutes before you try to install them...

I just installed my pedals.

pretty easy. definately boil some water. I dropped the brake pedal in the boiling water (while on the stove) and moved it around in the water for about 45 secons. Pull the pedal out the water, and put a few drops of Dawn on the back of the pedal.

The pedal will be hot when you are trying to work it on!!!

I attacked the pedal install from the side. Once I got one side on, I would wiggle the pedal so that I could get part of the top and part of the bottom onto the pedal assembly. At that point, use a small flat blade screwdriver; wedge the screwdriver behind the pedal and work the screwdriver around the rubber lip. It took a bit effort, but each pedal went on in about 3-5minutes with theis technique.

Do the same for the clutch pedal.

My Clutch pedal looks exactly like the brake pedal on a 6MT.. so I assume you can probably just order that one pedal? I still haven't finished my install yet lol

I had great success following the advice of those that did the install before me. I used a heat gun on the brake pedal to the point I had to use a rag to touch it. I finished the brake pedal in less than 5 minutes and then other two pedals were no brainers after reading the DIY's. Now to find the mod for the e-brake cover.
