Just wondering how much do the dealership charge you for the installation?

It wasn't pretty, but the finished product is. If you can pay someone else to do it, I would highly recommend it. If I would have known it was going to be that hard.....I would not have ordered them.
How much is the sport pedal set cost you? You should be happy now!!

I bought the pedals, a spolier, and the windshield cover in a package deal from a lexus dealer on Ebay. I think it was like $285 for the whooe package. I had posted the exact amount previously.

The pedals only took me about half an hour. Used a Snap-On drift punch, placed the pedal assy on the corner of my Craftsman roll away and a few strikes later it was out enough to use a vise grip and pull it out the rest of the way. Put the pin back in using an adjustable pliars to squeeze it back in, no hammer.

I installed the pedals on Saturday. It took me 2.5 hours & 2 men power (I don't have any punch tool). Anyway, I am very happy for the result.
