I just got these on mine as well. Great pieces. They simply replace the plastic buttons. Installation was literally 10 minutes, & I was taking it slow. I had mine anodized black to match my Drake shifter because it seems I am allergic to shiny things... lol.

Thanks for the information on these. I just ordered a set. I came close to ordering the other ones but I couldn't see spending that much on them. I'll be sure to post up a pic after I install them.

Edit: Does the video come with them? Because I don't see a video on the website.

The video was posted on another forum, I didn't see it on his site last I checked. If you email him he could probably give you the link to the video.

2012 paddle update.....

Not sure, I will look into it. 2012 GM changed the button to micro-paddles.
Will try and get you an answer ASAP.

Sorry, no Carbon Fiber for now, the cost to produce them will be very expensive to be able to sell the Paddles at a reasonable price.

Only Aluminum Paddles are available for the moment. 2010 and 2011 models.

Still working on the newly designed 2012 Paddles.
************
2012 are still being designed to fit the wheel....

Installed mine today. They look and work great. :thumbsup: Definitely worth the cost. It's what the car should have come with in the first place. I'd post a pic but honestly, how many pics of basically the same thing do we need to see? :lol:

Still love'n these paddles, I get a lot of comments on them. Everybody asks "Do they fall off?", NOT YET... NOT ONCE. If you have HUD and have the RPM's in the window, you can get very sporty with shifts. When I got the car I wasn't thinking road course stuff but more strait line. Not any more! I love finding a good twisty road and pushing the car. Feels great!

I love the HUD & the RPM's in the window and since my car came with the paddle shifters, it's been a learning process expecially going around a sharp curve or just turning of course. Trying to keep the mileage down since this car must last me along with my El Camino. Michael in Virginia

A6? My last car had bigger paddles and seems with the Camaro I miss it when turing sometimes....Maybe because I am not used to it yet though.....lol ;-)
A6 is a designation for the Auto trans. And now that I read your response I see that technically the car is not missing a shift (which is what I thought I was reading), you are... :D

It does take some dexterity and fore-thought for shifting for sure....

I traded my A6 2010 for a newer A6 SS and I almost left these in the car. So glad I took one last glance and got them out. I still haven't got them into the new whip but it's going to happen. I haven't seen anyone else in the Indy area with them at all.

Post some pictures when you do.
Took all of about 4mins to pop off both plastic OEM buttons and push these CNC paddles into place. Seems as though the old buttons had like an adhesive material similar to a sticky felt between the back of the button and the control.
This is a super easy install and I really like the paddles and use them more so than the buttons. Ahmed did a group buy of 100 on these for his introduction of the product and I'm proud to say I got 99/100. :eek: Talk about just making the cut.:thumbsup:
excuse the pics as it was cold outside and I had my car cover on and only removed it just enough to get inside to do the install and then snap two with the iPhone.

Old buttons into the tool box in case I need to switch for another trade-in.
