M Dead Pedal Retrofit

I recently attempted to retrofit the M Dead Pedal on to my '08 Sports Package 135i.

Kind of disappointed with the fitment and thought I would reach out to our inventive and industrious forum members for help.

I used the "yank out" method and ripped the stock dead pedal out of the carpet. Of course this broke the factory plastic plugs and they subsequently fell into the holes.

As those who have tried this know, the M Dead Pedal's pegs line up perfectly with the holes in the carpet, but they are too small to fig snugly inside. I know you can put velcro, double stick tape, wrap electrical tape around the pegs to make them bigger and use glue, but I figured there had to be some other way to secure the dead pedal so it is as firm as the stock one.

Ideas?

Pictures and a DIY of what I am talking about can be found below.
