The dead pedal and gas pedal are easiest.
The clutch and brake are a PITA. Heat them up first (soak them in hot, soapy water) and just take your time, sliding them on with a trim tool or a standard screwdriver. Just be patient.

ive even heard stick em in boiling water for a min or so to heat up the rubber then get them sorta installed as best you can by hand (use gloves so you dont burn yourself!!) then just kinda mash the pedal down with your foot and kinda twist/work it on

I used a light coat of bearing grease on the rubber and a vinyl siding removal tool + a screwdriver to stretch them over the pedals.

Pain in the butt to install but they look oh so good.

one of the best interior upgrades i've done (aside from the 01-04 center console and black conversion)!

what i did was heat the brake and clutch pedals w/ a hair dryer until they were easily persuaded--it was a breeze after that.
