Pedal Installation Help

I bought a pair of aftermarket aluminum Pedals that look just like the Porsche ones except they don't say Porsche. The pedals did not come with instructions, I've got the clutch on and I'm half way done with the brake (I broke a drill bit and had to go get one that is supposed to drill through metal) What I don't know how to do is the gas and foot rest. Does anyone have instruction or any tips?

bjarne996 will become famous soon enough
When I installed my alu pedals that replaced the pedal rubbers I used screws to fasten the break and clutch, while for the footrest and accelerator ones I simply cleaned and used double sided tape.

Doing it again I would have used silicone in addition to make sure they would not fall off even if a screw should break or the double sided tape should fail.

Yep, I used heavy duty double sided tape, and removed existing rubber pedals to drill them in. The brake pedal is a pain. I broke a ton of bits getting into that one.

Place a wood block, behind brake and clutch pedal, it supports the pedals, so they don't move when you drill them.

I also place masking tape on the pedals and marked them with a pen so I know to drill.
