Paddle shift - Your opinions please.

Simple paddle shift mod is amg paddles on the back of the wheel.
About £90 for the paddles and a bit of time to mount them.

Are we talking someting like these?

Yes but they are expensive, there are normally some on eBay for less than £90 delivered.
I did a write up on here some where on how to fit them.
They are great for track use but not as good round town, but I always drive in D round town.
What I means is they move with the wheel so when doing multiple turns on the steering wheel you loose track of which paddle is up and which is down

I'm going for the budget version!

The guy is going to cut the plugs and a bit of loom off for me to.

Huh, it seems I never posted in this thread!

I made these up a couple of years ago, took me about 4 hours, and cost me £3.49 for a couple of hinges and push buttons Been working great ever since!

Well hopefully I have taken all the hard work outof the equation, will just need to fabricate a mount and wire up.
