the Product Description [Taken from their Site]
The DSG transmission uses the same technology found in some of the world's premier Supercars; Porsche, Lamborghini and Ferrari among others. Unfortunately the stock shift paddles, the critical connection between driver and machine, don't live up to this standard. Our paddles fix this.
The Design:
We had one goal when we set out to improve the stock shift paddles; superior function and form with no compromises.
The stock buttons are too small and difficult to reach if your hands are anywhere but 9 and 3 o'clock on the wheel. With our paddles we've extended this range so they're always in reach regardless of your driving style. The Double Apex Shift Paddles are a full replacement, meaning they use the factory mounting points to ensure a rigid and reliable connection. Some other "extensions" simply stick to the stock paddles using double sided tape which is understandably flimsy and prone to failure.
Our two piece design allows low profile geometry that would not be feasible using a single machined part. This ensures the paddles do not interfere with your hands when they're on the wheel or when using the wiper or turn signal control stalks. The paddles are machined from 6061 alloy aluminum, hand buffed and polished, anodized, coated with a UV protective layer to prevent any color fade, and laser etched.
The hinge assembly was meticulously designed for a precision fit and its contoured geometry hugs the steering wheel to protect the electronic paddle internals and gives a factory equipped appearance. Stainless steel hardware is used to connect the components.
Installation:
Installation should take a professional no more than 30 minutes and detailed instructions make the kit easy to install at home. In addition to the tools included with the kit only a mirror, a common screw driver and wrench are needed. A mirror can be purchased from us separately if needed.
The install is easily reversible if you decide to re-install the stock paddles at any time.
