So noone has had an issue with placing the gas pedal over the existing plastic gas pedal (or dead pedal for that matter)? The thickness of the aluminum isn't a problem, in otherwords... ???
I know for those with a lease... Be sure to make those mounting holes in the plastic as small as possible.... If the lease inspector would happen to see those, you will 100% get charged with a new pedal, etc... Just an FYI if any of your are lease people!

I bet you could just PM UltimatePedals or email them and they could send you the dimensions straight away

As opposed to using self tapping (I'm an engineer... I'm leary of self tapping into plastic for aftermarket parts... but I'm nutz...) I'd like it better if you could use a machine screw and get some nuts behind them, although I don't know if that is possible for the gas pedal (didn't look close enough.)
I LOVE the look, but I think I'll be sticking with the stock...
I'm jealous of you guys with the look though, they are very nice.

i don't think so captain, its a wierd kind of plastic box build....even if there was something behind there to drill into, i wouldn't recommend it because if you floor it then the bolts would be sticking out the other end causing some interference also they don't give you enough bolts and washers to do so

Jatt/Giant,
How many screws did you receive? I received 8 so it's 2 per pedal (6MT).
Giant I sent you a PM with your manual kit how many did you receive? In your picture I see you screwed in 12. Am I missing 4? I need to buy from a hardware store I guess. I'll take these along to match.
