Bec paddle shift

Evening Chaps,

It's been a while but I've dragged the Riot out. Somewhat kicking and screaming it feels like.

Looking for some advice and opinions on paddle shifts. Most of the setups if seen on here are for front engine cars. Has anybody done a rear engined? What sort of length cable have you used? Was it an off the shelf part? Did you run into issues with cable length? Pics very welcome.

Also having some custom ally seats made up so will grace you all with some picture in hopefully 3weeks time :-)

Cheers
Phil

Cable tec in Kirkby are great. Decent cable with smoother curves shouldn't hav any disadvantage IMHO

Which paddles did you go for in the end?

I've not done anything about the paddle shift yet tbh in the middle of getting some new seats made up :-)

I'm interested in doing but wondering the difficulties of retrofitting
