Default Re: My New Custom Wheel with Paddle shift

Yes, I would have to say that Chris and I were pleasantly surprised by the depth of the structural portion of the wheel in the position we chose for the paddles.

Been playing with them while driving today. Trying to get used to not reaching for the shifter... LoL.

Be warned, this mod is NOT for the feint of heart. It WILL involve cutting into a perfectly good steering wheel as well as VERY detailed work inside of the shifter mechanism on the circuit board. That being said, the kit that Chris has created is on par or above what you would see for a 10,000 kit commercial run. Do not be mislead by the home made look of the module. All the harnesses are made the proper length and each connection is heat shrink wrapped at any junctions or ends to ensure long life. As far as I can tell, they are superior to the factory harness in many ways. This man knows his $h!t.

Thank you again Chris for your patients with me and my stubborn steering wheel.

Cheers!
