Cable operated paddles shift
16v205 - 21/5/18 at 06:29 PM

Hello,

I hate the sloppy gearshift in my car so i'm looking at converting it to a paddle shift.

Problem is kitcardirect haven't got any universal paddles in and I'm impatient

Has anyone got anything knocking about please? I was looking for a push pull operated paddle shift setup please

Cheers
Rich

I take it your gear linkage is cable at the moment?? That’s why it’s sloppy?
why don’t you change it to a solid Linkage?? with rose joint and make it so the
throw is only small very responsive, i had a cable and couldn’t use it as it was
Too stiff and didn’t like the response!

I’ll email you some pics of mine to see what you think

I inherited a rose jointed, all threaded Frankenstein gear selector that has so many bits in it I cant work out how they made it so complicated.

I thought I would replace it all with a cable system, then after that decided on a cable paddle shifter setup but just looking for some parts now.
