lci paddle swop success

after a lot of research and effort ive finally managed to swop the chrome paddles for the much nicer to use lci ones, if anyone is interested in doing this i bought the paddles from an ebay seller nexon motors (just type in bmw paddles) for about £246 delivered and H+C motors in maidstone will fit them and make them work properly for £80. they work much nicer than the chrome ones and downshift on the left and up on the right side

Jeff, how long roughly does the swopover take?

Is it the sort of thing H&C could do while you wait?

Here's how I modified the LCI paddles to work on my 2009 M-sport wheel which had the push/pull paddles
