I just placed my order! In the check out process, there is a space where it asks Year, Make and Model, in this section, put in that the order is part of the PORSCHE RENNLIST group buy. Also, enter any options you want, like crest, engraving, or heel/toe addition on gas pedal. Overall, pretty simple to place order.
Rob (Ultimate Pedals) asked that we post when we placed the order, he will be watching the thread.

Glen, how much did you end up spending for your pedals?

I ordered the frosted anti slip without inserts for the brake, gas and the driver foot rest, list was $211, if we get the 20+, (35% discount), which more than 20 have said they are participating, that would bring the cost down to $137, pretty good discount. (The frosted anti slip are the highest priced). The final discount is determined when the group buy closes. If only 10-19 participate by 3/17, the discount is only 30%.

Also, when you get the receipt after entering the order, you don't see the discounted price, the full list price is on the receipt. They will only charge the discounted price, once the group buy ends.

Just placed my order for 4 pedals. I went with the frosted anti-slip, with inserts. I believe the inserts are packaged uninstalled, but I asked specifically for them to be shipped that way. I prefer the look without the plugs, but I then have the option of installing them later - pretty simple install.

Rob (U. Pedals) mentioned to me in an earlier e-mail that Porsche has also asked them to not engrave "Porsche" on the pedals, as well as the logo insert....I was considering having the engraving done.

I asked for the pocket for the crest, which I'll get from Porsche. Good idea about getting tghe plugs shippped separately.

I just wanted to let you know what the interest has been, originally, when it was just posted on the 928 and 944 forums, I had 21 rennlisters who said that they would participate. Since it started, I posted on the 911, 993, Boxter, 996 and 997 forums. There have been orders from all the forums. I would think that we should top the 20+ with no problem. When you place the order, the receipt shows the full list price. Like the instructions say that is not charged, it doesn't reflect the group buy discount. I plan on speaking with Rob of Ultimate pedals 1-2 days before the buy will end to get an idea of how many participated. Also, when you order, it would be great if you would post here so others can get an idea how amny oders have been placed.
Thanks,
Glen

Michael, read the instructions on page 3 of this thread, it has the instructions on how to order online as part of the group buy.

Placed my order. Three pedals: clutch, brake, and gas (+ heel/toe extension), for an 87 944 Turbo.

Thanks for setting this up. Had been considering pedals from this company (or similar) and the discount clinched it. Note to other Canadians: they ship USPS across the border.

Currently, I count 13 orders that have been placed, just by people posting on the various forums that they have place order. I have names of 18 more who responded to the original post that they were interested, but I do not know if they placed orders yet. If they do, we will get the max discount. At current numbers the discount is 30%. If you place an order, please post here so I can keep track of how many orders are placed.
I will speak with Ultimate pedals next week to see if they have a different count. I will also inquire about the part number for the Porsche crest for those interested in ading the crest to their pedals.

Alot of people were asking what the crest in the pedal looks like. I was able to scan in the Ultimate Pedals ad which shows the Porsche crest in the pedals. Ultimate Pedals doesn't sell the pedal with the crest installed. They will machine in the pocket, then you have to buy the crest from Porsche. They will supply the Porsche part number and supply the instructions and epoxy to install yourself. Here is the scanned in ad:
