I have a 2009 g37x and would like to install paddle shifters. I do not have the nav package so it does not come prewired for them. Is there anyway to get the wiring and if so could someone post a how to for wiring install. Sorry if this is posted in wrong section. thanks for your time

 

I'm pretty sure all sedans are pre-wired for the paddle shifters, just takes a little work to find them buried behind the airbag.

Do a search and you'll find a DIY tutorial on how to install them. Good luck

IMHO, you can probably plug them in. Riverside or Orange Coast Infiniti have them for sale on eBay. ~$275.00 I think they are worth every cent.

 

I agree, Just installed mine last friday and I love them. Very easy install as well. I purchased mine from OC infiniti off ebay for 255 shipped. Makes the G so much more fun to drive and it gives you instant control of the gears when needed. Here is a link.

Is it possible to contact them directly and ask? Or they are exclusively online?

 

Thats an actual Infiniti Dealership in Cali. Here is a link to the Website. The contact numbers are on the site.

Yup all sedans should come pre wired the ones that might not are some coupes. I installed these in my 2009 sedan and it was a breeze under 45 min install time.

 

I got mine a few months ago and love them!!

 

I've wanted to get them for a while, but was worried about the "pre-wired/not pre-wired" issue. So far, all of you guys who posted saying you love your paddles, have the nav package. So how can you be sure?

 

Very easy install...Don't even have to remove the steering wheel

 

I have factory paddle shifters in my 2006 A6 Corvette. They are more of a novelty than anything. Sorta fun at first, but it wears off quickly and rarely use them after a few months.

 

I want paddles too!!!!!! You guys use it more than DS mode?!

 

salvador312, The paddles add an additional "interface" with the 7AT. Easy to move up or down a gear, "short shift", with hands on the wheel, eyes on the road. For me, they are perfect for driving on mountain / coastline roads while driving spritedly or just driving. An up/down shift in "D" returns to "D" in a short time, a longer time if you are cornering or driving up / down hill. Nice feature, even for an old dude. ;-) A good mod / factory upgrade for the money IMHO.

 

I got an 08 5AT!! Still, I have been wanting to get them so bad!! 7 speeds sounds like a lot!!

 

Does anyone have the DIY for the paddle shifter without removing the steering wheel? I cannot seem to find it.
