Install paddle shifters?

Has anybody installed paddle shifters into a 5at coupe before?

I was reading how somebody did it with a Lincoln LS, seemed pretty straight forward and done for under $500.

I have not seen anything for the G35, but they make them for the Z. I am not sure if it will work on the G or not.

Hmmm, who wants to be the first to to spend 625 to see if it will fit? I dont see why it wouldn't be able to fit...Maybe someone with an account over on my350z can shoot him a PM

- they are looking for a G you mean.

- and you will lose all the electronics on your steering wheel and the airbag.

- SMG paddle add on for under $400 seems better to me... someone just needs to figure out if the spiral cable in the steering column can be used or if new wires have to be run (harder). As I see it, there are 2 positive and 2 grounds leads, so 1 of each are "spare" and could be used to complete relay circuits for the shifting...
