Trim the sheet metal to fit on the back of the shoe.  My pairs have a handy little rubber part at the back and I trimmed the metal to approximate the shape.

After sanding down any rough corners and edges, drill in some holes and use some flat bottomed screws to mount the plate to the shoe.  The two screws on the side actually to go into the shoe and are secured with screw nuts, but they're wide enough apart that I don't feel them when I put the shoe on.  The bottom screw just goes into the padding.

Leave a bit of a gap between the plate and the shoe for now, as later we're going to put some zip ties through to attach the servo motors.
