I wouldn't doubt that they really are the X5 pedals. The X3 is so new, there doesn't seem to be much available for it yet. All the cheats on E-Scam just add "X3" to all their auctions... "Caveat Emptor" indeed!
I think I'll leave the bolts as is... Thanks for the tips! Exactly why I make this board a part of my day!

Semper Fi, Devil Dawg!
Nice job man, those look great. Feel great too, huh? I should amend the article I did- I used a really bad ass metal file on my screws, because it's actually a hazard if you have too much of them sticking out- a shoelace or pantleg could get snagged on it A dremel would be ideal for this, but mucho expensivo if you are on a tool budget. A good old hacksaw might be too much tool for the task. In any case, the brake pedal is the one to worry about, I don't think any overhang on the gas pedal would pose a real problem, although for uniformity and dress right dress, it'd be nice to shear all of them off. Congrats again, rebound! JV

Yeah, that was my initial concern, that my foot would get caught somehow by the bolts on the back of the brake pedal. So far though, I haven't had any probs - neither has the CEO, who drives it most (damnit!). Thanks though!
Semper Fi!

I've had mine installed for over a year now and I've never had any problems of things getting snagged on the screws.

i just did this install, pretty easy only I would suggest being very careful on the brake pedal as I drilled one hole on the lower left side right on the edge and it was a bitch to carve it out because of this. its ok because the other three holes are fine and its still centered fine nice and level. you may want to consider holding the pedal up and drilling directly through the pedal holes unless you have a really good drill technique since my bit ended up sliding i little downward. any way a big improvement aesthetically for $50 on ebay. i used a dremel to cut down the the two long screw posts on top of the gas pedal.
