Yea, I was more looking for a "what did you do to mount them" type of response if anyone had done it.
I purchased these, but unfortunately they don't seem to be just a straight "bolt on" type of replacement...
I'll PM AArotary and see if he replies about his install..

Hey, Check this out
Here is a shamless plug for my stuff. Check out the thread & the comments people have made.....
https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...threadid=62825
Benifit? It's designed to "FIT" the FD3S pedals. The gas pedal is mfg from 0.125 thick 7075 Aluminum, curved to follow the countour of the stock pedal.
The Dead pedal is custom cut & has exsposed dimples, just like the J-Spec style offered by Mazda on the RZ, to increase grip.
Best of all? Only $70, total. shipping included.
How can you lose? Operators are standing by to take your order....
Leave your brake & clutch alone. Looks stupid adding a cover over an aluminum pedal, redundant.

I'll definitely consider your option. Unfortunately, I already purchased the Sparco pedals (yea, I should have done more research first).
It's not like they were a lot of money, but I'm not sure if I'm going to take the time and get them mounted or not yet.
Thanks again, your gas and dead pedals look great.

Erf, I have a headache. Are you asking how to install these on a pedal?
You pull the rubber liners off the stock pedals, like up the new pedal on top of the now rubberless face, take a marker, mark the holes, drill through them, and bolt them on. Repeat for all the pedals. Make sure none of them scrape along the floor as you push them all the way back.
You could install just about anything on the pedals that way. That's the way my Momo pedals went on. Sparco is almost exactly the same.

I think I'm going to punt the idea of welding on the Sparco's and go for Pettit's bolt on pedals:
As much as I like the look of the Sparcos, I know I would tear something up getting them mounted myself.
