Let me think about it a bit ... if having your horn available all the time seems important to you then I suppose this should be considered.

Cheers,
Chris

Late model21,the person who started the thread makes and sells this kit. It is a great addition to the car and always gets comments.

I may be wrong 180, but I recall when I read this a couple of years back that Chris told the kit user that they would have to acquire the paddles elsewhere, he didn't have any to sell, just the kit that interfaced the paddles to the shifter electronics.

Thanks , $150 a pair is ok , how much is your kit ?

The kit last sold for $295. Even at that price, it was barely worth my time to manufacture it. I am hoping that I can keep the cost down on the next build to avoid raising the price. If you would like to be notified (at no obligation) by email when the next Kit release is imminent, send me an email (wonwitheverything@yahoo.com) and mention that you want to be added to the SRT6 paddle kit notify list.

Cheers,
Chris

Just fitted my paddleshift kit and all I can say is that I am more than happy. Very professional kit that looks OEM when fitted. The builder Chris (Latemodel21) has been beyond helpful and with his updated pictures and instructions make fitting much easier.

I'll second that. just bought my second set, for the new 6, and Chris , as always has been, just the best to work with, plus his products are absolutely top notch. I've recently installed his scatter shield, and belt wrap kit, and both are certainly up to his high standard.

They are complete although there are a few more and/or better pics I hope to add.


The Paddle shifter thread https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...dle-shift.html was getting long and much of the discussion has more to do with the history of this mod than anything else.

So, I thought I would start a new thread with a PDF copy of the install instructions at it's beginning (so finding them will never be too hard).

I am hoping that in this thread I can answer any questions that are not made clear in the instructions and in turn update the instruction pdf when it seems appropriate.


I am continually looking for ways to make the kit easier to install and welcome and and all input.
Constructive feedback on the instructions and the Kit is always welcome either here or in PM.

Also, if you have already done the install and have any Tips you would like to share that you feel might help others, please post those here too!
Chris

is he/she still active in the forum?

I haven’t received a reply and it’s been quite some time.

thanks!

Hello ,
I am interested in your paddle shift kit ...
please let me know when you are going to make more.
or could you share your design plans.

Thank you for your time
William

I found that cutting into the back of the steering wheel was the hardest part as you want to make sure you do it neatly and in the exact spot described. You want it to look like it was put in carefully, I used a fine pointed Xacto knife and pushed it in just a 1/16” so the cuts all joined up following the template. I thought tracing around the template could lead to the knife going off course and leave a deep cut in the plastic.
Cutting the rear of the console makes it a doddle to remove the ashtray assembly after you remove the four rear screws as the console can be sprung open to remove the ash tray easily.

Got my paddle shift kit from Chris Messer this weekend, what a brilliant kit this is. Fitted it in just under 5 hours. Great instructions with detailed photographs. Best to get your tools ready and have a good read through the instructions first. Please take your time when soldering the circuit board and check with a multi-meter. Please contact me if you need any further details.
