Go on Kev go with the paddle! 
Think i have the shifter cable i was goner use still, if i can find it.
But as ox says, the brake switch will be in the way for a normal mech shifter.
Would be more positive using a push rod setup for a paddle shift, the cable way has been done before, but might be a bit sloppy in operation.
As Delboy always said......" You know it makes sense"

One thing to bear in mind though, is that if you decide to go the paddleshift route, you'll have to do away with the stalks on the Sierra column
which will mean finding an alternative way to operate indicators and lights 
Not too difficult to do, just means more switches on the dash. Indicator issue might also be a PITA.

stalks have already gone and got a switch already wired in for the indicators so not a prob, any one know what stops the paddle shift bit floating
around?
