I have yet to install mine, but I've read it's pretty easy. One of the tips was to soak them in very hot water to make them softer and easier to stretch.

i hope this link works:

Install took me about 45mins. Using the mirror to see behind the pedal helps a lot. I didn't soak or heat up the pedals at all. I was too anxious to get them on so I just tackled it head on. Patience is the key, I hear others had a harder time. Congrats and good luck!

Pedal install.....

The most difficult part is standing on your head to
tighten the screws............ All my instructions
were in Japanese, having knowledge of brail helps.

the only thing that slowed me down was getting the brake pedal on. try near boiling water to soften up the pedal.....but then it gets to hot to hold.

I was able to rest the brake pedal on top of my work light to heat it up and got it on that way. It was still rather difficult. Just have to keep at it, you'll get it on.
