You use them metal clips to bolt it across the back of the stock pedal. In my experience these tend to loosen up and fall off. The only direct replacement for us are the KDM pedals. The slip right on the brake and clutch pedals. You have to replace the gas pedal assembly though.

I have some like the first ones. I've run with them for about 2 years. I replaced them because they started to wear though the powdercoating into the metal. They have different mounts, but basically the same concept.
I had to tighten them up once since the initial install, but they've stayed on there pretty firmly since then. You have to figure out how they're going to stay on best. If you want to get really hard-core about it, You could epoxy the suxors in place on the back of the pedal once you get everything set up and tight just the way you want it. Like I said though, you'll probly just have to tighten them up once or twice after you install them.

they didn't come with any instructions? i'd try fiddling around with them with the pedals. you have to take the old pedal covers off first but i think that's up to you.
i've never used these but it seems like an easy job.

Loosen the screws on the pedal covers. You may have to remove the stock rubber pads. Place on top of your car's pedal. arrange flaps so that they hold the pedal cover in place. Tighten the pedal covers in place.
