RE: Floor boards
If you mean the inserts, the object that contacts your foot, they are attached by six (I think) rubber "feet" that must be pulled into the floorboard. After you remove the stock inserts, put some ArmorAll or dishwasher liquid on the "feet" and align them with the holes in the floorboard. Take a pair of pliars and grab each foot one-by-one from the underside of the floorboard and pull them through 'til they are firmly seated. The feet have protrusions that are designed to help to grip it and pull it on through. Be careful, as I've broken these protrusions by being overzealous, but there are 3-4 and if you break one you have more to fall back on.

Did those recently myself. My advice - first, make sure you're doing it in warm temperature. I was doing it while it was freakin' snowing outside. I warmed'em up a little in front of a space heater before working on them to make the rubber more pliable.
Second - I used 2 sets of needle nose pliars. I used the first to gently get the tip pulled out - then carefully & quickly used the second to grip in the stretched space under where I presently had it gripped...then repeated the proccess - leap frogging the needle nose pliars until it popped all the way through.
Tore'em up a bit - but even with tearing off pieces parts of the nub, as longs as you have a whole piece where it meets the hole so it doesn't go back down, you'll be good.
Have fun!
