better reach than on the stock dct paddles? I find the upshift a little hard to reach whilst cornering (or exiting a corner).

M3 paddles sit just behind your fingertips. No need to 'reach' in slightly as with stock paddles. Pcock just hurry the f*ck up and get M3 paddles on your current wheel. I don't know why this thread is still dragging on for so long.

Suj, I understand Merc drivers are a little older and set in their ways but you gotta remember to keen the blood pressure down
From what others have said the M3 paddles don't sit right on the msport wheel and I don't like the M3 wheel. So I either suck it up or look at the lci paddles. |

Well idk why mine doesn't work. Stu got Clinton's LCI paddles to work on his 320d, so I think it's been resolved. Just that I know jacksh*t about electronics and wiring, so I need piccies to guide me through (I'm a visual person ) The airbag is a b!tch to unclip for a noob like me so I won't go removing it again unless I have the solution in hand.
Pcock just go with the m3 paddles with the LCI wheel. Like I said, you won't notice the small gap since it's behind the wheel. Form and function right? :P |

I cbf posting in this thread any more. It is just wasting time. Keep your wheel. Get M3 paddles. Do it. If not happy (unlikely) then change. Enjoy rambling on about the same old paddle s#it. /suj out |

Check this thread out http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=622851.
Whilst it's a BMWP wheel, it's got non-DCT paddle cutouts. So this will be how it looks like from the back and front - just imagine you're looking at an LCI wheel instead of a BMWP wheel. Also as the OP for the thread points out, can't see the gap once the paddles are mounted. Just as Suj's been trying to tell you here HTH. |
