   i think they are just pedal covers are they, not - take the rubbers of the existing pedals, drill holes and screw on.....so i am led to believe anyway.

   thing is, with saxo original pedals, u have a big metal stem going down the back of each of them. Now you cant drill through these,(MOT failure) so really u need to find a set of pedals that u have drill around the edge of them.

   Get some citroen sport pedals. Bout £35 i think. I bought some ages ago, all fixings included and they look bloody smart. You drill into the existing pedal and screw and bolt the new ones on. Complete with rubber grips so they'll pass the mot (long as you fit them right!).
   
   Just gotta fit mine now - only had them 5 months!

    Yeh , they look good, and are specifically designed for the saxo, as Smithy said, so shouldnt be a prob with the fitting. Just sont ask Smithy for pics , it'll take him another 5 months to get them on now....!
