Would these go over the existing paddles or replace them? I havn't even got the car yet (end of this month hopefully) so can't go and look at how they attach but on the test drive the standard paddles didn't seem easy to reach. Do they come off easily?

Me too..but would have to be easy to revert to OEM as mine is leased.

Would be remove the airbag, pull the pin from the current paddle and remove
Insert new paddle and then push the pin back in.
10000% reversible.

Nope. These are replacements.
See above. Fitting is probably a 10/15min job

1st 3D prototype done!
Got a few snags to sort out with clearances and bits but very happy so far!

Will edit the model today and get both sides printed over the weekend

Second prototype.
Going to fit them to the car tomorrow and see how it goes.
They fit much better and feel great.

Looks like these are coming along nicely. Will admit to being a bit wary of dismantling the steering wheel and airbag on what will be a brand new car when it arrives though.

Anyone got any cheaper alternatives to the racingline paddles I like the design on them?

I've had quotes for these to be made.
Just need to get round to ordering them.

Would be around £80 - £100 a set.

I'd have to check the PNs of the new ones. I would assume that they are the same paddles as the steering wheel hasn't changed

I still need to get round to ordering parts and actually trying them. Been too busy lately.
I'll be watching with interest must be a decent market for them if you get them right. Must admit of those I've seen I like the carbon ones but they're stick on
