Paddle Shifter Question?!?!

I'm looking to swap out my C43 paddle shifters for the C63 paddle shifters. Anyone know if it will be plug and play?

No, the shape of the pocket it goes into is different. you can modify it with a razor blade but otherwise it is not plug n play.

Are these the same as the paddles that come on the optional amg steering wheel?

Are the paddle shifters shape the same as the C43? I was thinking of getting this below?

Those won't fit the C43.

I thought all the paddles in the C class would be the same. That is strange.

Will depend on which steering wheel your car has.





The paddles are distinctly different between the two

Thanks for that. I definitely have the AMG steering wheel.

So I do have the same paddle shifters as the C63.

It literally depends on what paddles are fitted.... The global worldwide optioning will vary from country to country.

But you can assume if it has the AMG insignia written on the bottom spoke, it has the larger shifters. You can match the profile with these glue on extension you are wanting.
