Well I finally got up the nerve to install my DMC Houston dead pedal. I had some problems figuring out how to make the rivnuts scrunch up in the hole. After a couple of inquiry e-mails to James and some trial and error it worked just like he said. I am a real novice but I was able to do this install in about 20 minutes!! I first pulled back the carpet and taped the template onto the footwell. The drill size if 3/8" but I started with a much smaller one as a pilot. I then removed the template and used a slightly larger drill bit until I got up to 3/8". Next you simply press the rivnut into the hole. Warren had sent me a longer bolt to use as the smaller one for final installation doesn't give you quite enough room for the job. You then put on a regular nut and metal washer on the bolt that will act as the "anchor" when tightening. Place the dead pedal over one of the rivnuts to be tightened. Thread in the long bolt enough to get a good grip in the rivnut threads. Wind the nut down onto the face of the dead pedal with the metal washer touching the dead pedal face. This will leave you a nice long piece of bolt sticking out into the footwell area....You'll need this!! Use a vise grip or someother wrench to hold the bolt in place at the very end of the bolt. Then take another wrench and start to slowly tighten up the nut that is touching the dead pedal face (with the washer in front on it) As you start to tighten it feels like it's stripping, but it's not. The rivnut is scrunching into place and shortening. Once it feels fairly tight repeat the same procedure on the other rivnut. you may what to switch the dead pedal around so to give you the room you need to get in there. Since this isn't the final install it really doesn't matter. After both rivnuts are tight you then have to cut your carpet to make room for the dead pedal to slip through. Once you do this, install the shorter bolts that come with your pedal and tighten it up to where it feels good. It may give a little more but don't worry the rivnut is in there pretty good at this point. I didn't cinch it up too much as it felt tigh enough As for the "feel" of the pedal...Well, it is GREAT! It makes a world of difference in how far your foot extends into the footwell. I felt more secure in the driving position. If your thinking of getting one I would recommend it. Let me know if you get one and have any problems! Tom 005732 MT http://www.geocities.com/outatime81
