I've found threads with instructions on how to install them on sedans and posts saying it can be done on coupes. If the convertible has been mentioned, I've missed it.

Can we do it on the convertible?
Has anyone?


Thanks for any help you can offer!

I did my '11 a few weeks ago.

Piece of cake. Follow the DIY and you will be rocking paddles in no time.

Grubbs in Texas via ebay.

Grubbs infiniti is a wonderful dealer

Just ordered the paddles from Grubbs then as I re-read the installation threads they talk about a kit from Riverside Infiniti with the side trim, top trim and hardware included. Do I need to order something additional for the installation?

I got all of the trim pieces included from Grubbs.

No worries.

I emailed them and discovered that if you buy the paddle shifters from their parts website, all you get is the paddle shifters. However, their is a kit on the Ebay site that has everything I should need.
They cancelled my order so I could make the right one from the Ebay site.
I hope this helps someone else.

Just so anyone doing a search learns from my mistake.
Not all the 2009 Convertibles are wired for the paddle shifters. Mine was used and I didn't know which package it was but it didn't have the wiring. Guess that I should have pulled the trim off before ordering.....

Make sure you specify if you have the manual or motorized telescoping steering wheel. When I did mine they sent me the trim for the power telescoping when I needed manual. Luckily I got the right one sent out eventually (although I drove with no steering column trim for two weeks).
