All 2010 models can physically retrofit the paddles as previously mentioned there is a connection socket in the steering wheel. Then you need to activate the paddle shift in the CCF which requires a Faultmate or similar

If you have an SC and have the right firmware in the transmission module then you are good to go! If not you can have the transmission ECU flashed with the correct firmware and then you are also good to go!

If you have a TDV8 like me then you can fit the paddles, wire them up so they illuminate with the dash lighting and enable them in the CCF but at this point they still don't work anyone sensing that maybe I know this from personal experience so this just leaves flash upgrading the transmission with the same SC firmware.

As soon as my Faultmate allows for this facility as it is still work in progress with BBS I will try it and let you know if it works

Paul, we have done this several times... My 07my TDV8 has them fitted, my last 06 SC had them fitted and my D3 TDV6 has them fitted as i use them when towing...

Follow Matt Stevens guide (on here and on you-tube) as to turn the switches from can to - earth switches. I personally then wire the steering wheel illumination to the heated steering wheel circuit... The earth to a screw on the inside of the steering wheel, freeing up two wires in the slip ring to wire as my up-down earth signals No need for ir transmitters or any other boxes... Wire the other end through to the up-down microswitches on your gear selector and your away

The only downside is you loose the use of your steering wheel buttons until the ignition is switched fully on (heated steering wheel circuit) but that is a small price to pay as far as i am concerned

Simples....Cheers Craig....I thought there would be an easy way of bypassing using the +/- micros below the shift lever, but re-using the wires pre-destined to power the SW illumination as the hardwired link wires is simple but genius
