Local shop here sells a kit to do just that, for around US$800

Will look for some. Actually just checked the price - $600 including labor but I don't think it looks that nice (it looks weird with both buttons and paddles). Would much rather get a Raid steering with paddle shifter (think it's around $2000)

I don't have it handy. Just go to FVD's site and look under steering wheels.

I have the RUF version of this wheel. Left paddle to shift down, right paddle to shift up. Great EXCEPT clearance to indicator stalk and wiper stalk very close. You need to change using only the tip of the triggers. If you use the full trigger on the track you end up indicating/getting the wipers on etc from time to time in the heat of the battle.

Sold the car to a customer in Bolivia. Shipping the car to Miami then he is putting it in a plane to Bolivia. Nuts! Because the roads there are terrible, he had us raise the car to stock ride height and we also put on the stock wheels and powdercoated them black. Needless to say I will have some stuff posted in the classified section from this car. Stay tuned.
