Paddle shifters help!

I just realized I bought paddle shifters off a 2008 g37s coupe! Damnit! I have a 2011 g37x sedan! Anybody know if the plastic pieces that go around the steering wheel are the same specs in the coupe and sedan????? I'm not sure where I am sopost to post this lol but please help me! I'm hoping that the pieces from a coupe will fit the sedan

I believe the steering columns and paddles are universal between coupe-sedan. Hell take off the trim piece and see. That install is extremely easy and quick. You can find out in a matter of 10-15 mins if everything fits.

The steering column panels are exactly the same. You have nothing to worry about.

I have to think at that point most all were but not really any way to tell without removing the steering column pieces. My 2010 X sedan was pre wired you should be okay.

I'd honestly just wait for a used set to pop up on either CL, eBay, or the forums. I paid $200 for mine in excellent condition from some guy over in the classifieds. Not worth the $350-400 but we'll worth $200 IMO.

They have three options on the website you tagged. Do you know which one is the regular most cars have on?

I'm not sure what most cars have. Behind my steering wheel on the left side my car has a **** to move it around, I'm guessing that means its electrical.

Basically what they said ^^

eBay or CL has the best prices. I found mine for $150 for just the paddles on ebay, great condition. They pop up every now and then so just keep and eye out and you'll find some.

Good point, that's always an option if you are willing to mod your own plastics and pick up hardware. I have my old OEM paddles sitting on a shelf since I swapped out to the CF paddles.
