AB Paddleshift kit

Morning chaps.

Are any of you using the AB Performance Paddleshift system.
How are you finding it and does it turn with the wheel?

Also, What are the alternatives to the AB setup.
I'm aware of the electronoc systems but I'm only thinking cable at the moment.

thanks

Gary

I had the AB kit on my last car, they are expensive but very very good quality.

As with any mechanical paddle it is fixed so doesn't rotate with the steering wheel, the paddles are quite large so you can still grab a gear with the steering wheel turned.

I saw a couple of other kits around but seemed a little flimsy in comparison to the AB one plus the service from Andy is second to none.

I've a kliktronic system on my car with push button system with a trick shifter incorporated with it. I hated it from day one as there was no feel in the gear changes and finding neutral was a complete pain.

I now have the AB performance paddles with the cable setup and is so much easier to use and the kliktronic system is still on for the sake of the trick shifter.

I have the AB system, it was easy to install and works very well. The support was excellent.
