Tiptronic flappy paddle conversion

[nikmartin9]

So you still have the old buttons visible?

I've gone for adding paddles to original wheel, wasn't confident of my abilities enough to do it myself, I wont have any pics of mine for a couple of weeks until its been recovered, happy to send some once done, in fact i'll probably post them in here

Thinking of future owners, I kept the original tiptronic buttons although now they are disconnected. Some future owner might want the originality of them.

darren at Edition9 told me that some owners have covered them in carbon fibre or matching OE leather- but I havent done anything with mine yet.

Finished product at last. Delayed while wheel was off to subcontractor for flattening, and I have been away.

I've just done mine I bought a wheel of a Manuel boxster bought the amg paddles. Cut them in and covered the whole wheel apart from the air bag( which can be done ) I even covered the back all the way down. If your thinking about having yours done make sure they use a alcantara which is thicker especially for steering wheels the other way to make sure it only comes in the black. It's a great conversion and makes a totally different driving experience.

Great. I've bought a manual wheel with the intention of getting the paddles fitted then retrimmed.

Are you able to share any pictures of yours?

Thanks
