Paddle shifts

Hi,

Does anyone know where I can find some paddle shifters that would work on the W204 steering wheel without having to buy the whole wheel?

Thanks.

I found a thread by Michael and some other, but not one started by MBMarko. Will post update once I start working on it. Currently wrapping all my wood trims in brushed aluminium.

Looks like I forgot to video the shifter and ash tray.
I got the wrap on eBay and it took me like 10 hours first time.
Might do Carbon Fiber next.

Looking good man! Great job, would never have known it was your first time. Would love to see the shifter and ash tray as well.

Thanks! My first 3 pieces could have came out better but boy when I did the front and back doors I killed it. I'll probably redo a few with the vinyl I have left and wax it.

Sorry for the thread hi-jack OP.
XEryx,
How did you wrap the ashtray cover. Seems like a PITA. Did you remove all interior pieces prior to wrapping.
BTW maybe we should have a different mod thread for interiors like this type of work.
Again sorry for the hijack.

*Also I think MB Marko actually just did AMG steering wheel swap, not paddles.

I recall the paddles but maybe its just my memory and it was just the wheel swap. Sorry for the hassle.

I believe the OP is looking to add paddles, I don't think he has them at all in order to use the extensions you provided, although they look reaaaallll nice...

I took my airbag off today to verify that my 2012 OEM wheel had the connectors for the paddles and I am happy to report that they do. See pic.
