Well I haven't had my 996 very long but I found I've never really been able to get used the button on my steering wheel (it's a tiptronic) so I've had flappy paddles fitted and Thayer are amazing!!!

It's a company in Bolton called edition9, they cost £399. I'm local to them so I left my car with them for the afternoon. So much better than the buttons! I just couldn't get used to the buttons.

Vast improvement over the buttons as you say.

The metal paddles on mine are superb.

Yeh so much better than the buttons and the paddles are very high quality. They really are good!

Does that incldue a new steering wheel? or do you keep the same wheel with buttons but with added paddles?

This is the sport design wheel I have on the right, I believe it's around £6-700 as a retrofit.

That's not too bad if you wanted to have paddles and a new wheel

Hi the £399 didn't include a new steering wheel, but they are super quality. Ive seen on other forums were people are supplying manual steering wheels and they are adding the paddles. I must admit they look like a factory fit.

I was referring to the previous post about the Retrofit wheel

It's not complicated, I'd just have a look a www.Edition9.co.uk. that's gonna tell you all you need to know. I just wish I had got hold of a manual steering wheel and had the paddles fitted to that!!! It's a brilliant mod
