paddle shifters

whats up everybody. I'm thinking about putting paddle shifters in my 06' 5at, coupe. Anyone here ever done that and if so how much does it cost and is it difficult.

paddle shifter

I checked out the Works Bell at www.evasivemotorsports.com they sell it for $389.00, is that a good price. If so, I'm pretty handy can I install it myself or should a shop do it.

Thanks Charlie

Sell the car and buy a 6MT. If you really want to shift, that's the only way to go.

I have the works bell installed not much difference in response time, it's just a piggyback unit that taps into the tiptronics and let's u shift from the wheel, not really worth it imo but they look nice haha as far as installing them I would go to a shop because u u have to take the steering wheel off and I was afraid of the air bag going off

Has anyone actually installed the works bell kit on an 05+ G that has an electronically adjustable steering wheel?

I'd be interested to know too.. Most of the kits out there now exclude those models.
