Hello,

I just recently purchased a 2007 Infiniti G35 Sedan Base Model. Ii doesn't come with electronic steering column mover or paddle shifters. I am purchasing a paddle shifters kit from here:

The only difference of the trim in this kit is that there is a section of the trim thats been cut off so paddle shifters can fit in there. I was asking what if I purchased just the paddle shifters and use a cutting machine of some sort to cut a piece into my current trim? Would there be any kind of major problems? Anything I should be aware about? or would it work just fine?


Please let me know,

Thanks!

 

Interesting!! You could always try it! But make sure your Base Model is prewired for paddles!

 

There wont be any problems if you cut it in the proper place but i doubt that it'll look as clean, i say do it right the first time.

 

How much are the paddles by themselves?!

 

Does anyone know if the base G35 models are prewired for paddle shifters??

 

IIRC, the base models weren't wired for the paddles, only the Journey

 

I heard there are a few prewired!! Just follow the DIY and check yourselves!!

 

I believe they're all pre-wired

 

ya i thought they were all prewired

Post 309 of the same thread wasn't

So, I dunno. Maybe one day they used one harness and a different one on the next. I have a sport, so I don't care either way

 

WOW! everyone is quick to answer. The only thing i hear is that the journey package is per wired for them.

And salvador312, to answer your question, call Rick at the OC Infiniti dealers. The price is really good and easy to install if you have the right tools. I got them on my G 2 weeks ago.

 

You did!!! I want them too but they too pricy! Got quoted $290! Maybe next year! Lol

 

Can I install it on automatics?

 

its ONLY for automatics lmao

 

YES my 2007 G35 Base Model is prewired for the paddle shifters. I already had a tech open up the steering trim and we found both wires.

The paddle shifters alone I found for $160.00 plus tax and shipping.


OK another question.. I was reading online that the Paddle Shifters make your car shift faster? I dont think thats true because the way your car shifts is entirely up to your Transmission.. Am i wrong? Also anyone know how to make your g35 shift faster???
