Paddle Shifters upgrade

[RahimRad]

Guys, Has anyone installed the auto transmission's paddleshifters to their E60? I've read on the net that it's been done before but the ones I read were not Malaysians' E60. Anyone care to share their experience? I'm very much interested to install these paddleshifters on my ride, 530i Q42005 UK spec auto. Thx :top:

about Paddle Shifters... I'm sure that it can be done coz I know someone who had installed one on his E39...
There's also one fellow bimmer here... t2ribena whom I called Mr. DIY... had added paddle shifters onto his car by himself... maybe he can shed some light here... otherwise PM him...

t2ribena,

Can you tell me where you sourced your paddleshifters and how much did it cost?

I might be able to find someone to fit it for me.

Thanks

Hi,

I've installed a paddleshift steering with MF to my E85. The only parts i need are;

1. new steering column with extra 2pin socket (this is for the wire (item 3 below)you run from the gbox to the shifter)
2. special wiring loom for the multi function button
3. a pc reset switch wire (to use for no. 1 above)

I wont state the part nos. here as it may be different from your E60 but I think it's definitely possible.

Now, got all controls on steering and they illuminate at night.....10x increase in cool factor BHP
