Okay so on the g35 thread, page 20, there is a way to instal paddles without removing the steering wheel. But i couldnt do it at all! i could not remove the lower trim (below the steering column). So how exactly can you check on a g37? Maybe with pics ? Thanks

In my time trying to check, i broke 2 clips and lost a screw

 

your steering clock-spring is different and wouldn't support it if its not a packaged item you wanted new with the car.

 

why wouldnt my car support it though? i do have premium/nav package, from what i hear that generally means your wired for it

 

I just did it this weekend on my 2010 x sedan. You just have to do alot of pulling to get the bottom steering cover off. (after taking out the 2 screws behind the steering wheel), It is a serious pain. I thought I was going to break the column cover, but the paddle kit comes with a new one anyway. Can use foam or masking tape to protect the dash/bottom gauge cluster cover thing. After you get the bottom piece off, you will be able to see the two little plugs wrapped up under the column.

 

thanks for the response, i plan on just breaking that sucker off. since i get a new one

 

you shouldn't have a problem. there's a diy thread on here somewhere I just cant find it right now.

 

yeah i know its on the g35 forums, but i just couldnt get that damn bottom piece off, ill just assume i am wired haha

 

Did it work for you? I have a 2011 G37 non-sport and wanted to know if it came pre-wired. i dont have the Navi but do have the premium.

 

i have navi and WAS wired. Riverside inifniti says all their cars are wired.

 

I have a 2010 Journey Coupe, non-nav and non-premium. I bent down to look from under the steering column and there is a gap about 1" wide where I could see the connector for the right paddle just hanging there. You can also get your fingers in there and feel around. I'm installing them this weekend.

 

i read somewhere that ALL 2010's are wired. dont quote me on it though as im just quoting someone else haha. i will look for my wires when i get home because i want paddles BAD

 

i just checked and mine is wired. 2010 G37x coupe no nav

i tried to look up behind like flux said, but i couldnt see them. so i undid the 3 bolts and just slid it down far enough to see them, then slid it back up.

i will be ordering them in the next couple days

 

I got my paddle shifters yesterday and installed them. The last piece was the left trim piece, and that's when I realized they sent me the kit for cars with power telescoping steering. The bottom trim doesn't have the slot for where the manual locking steering wheel goes, so I can't lock my steering wheel in place. And there's a hole in the left trim piece where the control for steering adjustment goes.

So make sure you specify if you have that option when ordering, now I have to take it all off and send it back.
