Paddle Shift Retrofit Harness for BMW

The Original Paddle Shift Retrofit Kit

Since we created this conversion kit in early 2008, it’s allowed enthusiasts to easily add OEM BMW paddle shifters to their E9x E8x BMW that did not come with paddles from the factory. This kit includes a custom time saving plug and play harness that enables factory paddle shift without cutting, splicing, programming, or timely dealership visits. Separately purchase a paddle shift steering wheel, paddle shifters, and the necessary steering wheel controls (MF buttons) and plug in our harness. It’s that simple. The retrofit can be performed with common tools in about 2 hours at home by following our step-by-step printed install guide. The necessary OEM part numbers for this upgrade are included in the guide. Made with OEM BMW connectors.

We’re here to help however a verified BMS order number is required for all tech support.

Paddle shifters will add more fun, value, and performance to your BMW. Paddles shifters will enhance your driving experience and allow you to safely change gears without your hands ever leaving the steering wheel. Paddles are activated by hitting a paddle in 2007 and newer vehicles. Some pre-2007 models will need to switch the gear shifter into “S” mode to use paddles. The gear you are in is displayed in the instrument cluster. Read our FAQ and install the guide below.
