Extended paddle shifters
I wonder why anyone doesn't make these for our cars.

Does anyone know of any company that does?

Any vendors here want to make a set?

I have extended paddle shifters in my f430 and its such a useful modification.

Wish the vantage had it.

On some cars the paddels move w the steering wheel on a ring or collar around the steering column so the driver can maintain a 9 & 3 hand position on others they are fixed and do not move with the wheel. In the case of extensions maybe they are only produced for fixed paddle cars.

Resurrecting this instead of starting a new thread. Any change or update on this? Or has anyone retrofitted larger paddles from the newer AM’s?
