Hi,
I am going to fit a new paddle shift in the next few weeks. This means I will need to replace my existing indicators, headlight and hazard and transfer them onto the dashboard. Can anyone recommend what switches I should use and does anyone have any pic’s if they have fitted a paddle shift.

Cheers Rob

Im going to fit one of these myself ,not sure which way to go yet ,some pics of various types of paddle shifts just to wet your appetite http://s74.photobucket.com/albums/i256/richard440/Kit%20Car%20Stuff/

In my opinion ( which counts for FA on here)

i think these do the best quick shifters and there is plenty of other goodies as well.

here is a thread about mine,

Here are a few photos of my paddle shift, excuse the dust. The original setup had all the controls on the dash, however I wanted to go to stalks to make it easier to drive on the road (indicators a pain on a switch). The left hand stalk is indicators, high beam and flash. The right hand stalk is dip beam, main beam and the end button changes to function of the display.

The paddles are a simple push pull rod system with bellcrank. The paddles have a short throw for quick changes and so they don't interfere with stalks/ steering wheel.

I still need to make a cover for the back of the steering wheel boss, but that will be done over the winter sometime.
