If you are referring to Riverside Infiniti in California, yes I bought mine there. They shipped a complete kit for black interiors. Install isn't too difficult but although the shifters work fine for me they are little more than steering column decorations.

I got them a few months back. They were super easy to install. I didn't even have to remove the steering wheel. Do your own diligence, however, and ensure you have the pre-wiring under the column first.

There's a thread on the whole thing, just do a search...

Can paddle shifters be added to an 09 G37 Sedan Premium Journey with the willow color interior?

I search for "add paddle shifters 09 g37 sedan" and get a huge mix of topics. I've read several threads on this, and read the instructions, but still am not clear as to which models/years come pre-wired.

1) I don't want to buy the kit and tear into it just to find out I don't have the wiring.

2) Where do I find the willow kit? All I see are the black kits.

Thanks anyone...

I was able to loosen the lower steering column cover, use an inspection mirror and light to find the connector on the right side of the column and figured if there was a right side one the other side would be there too. It was covered with gray foam insulation and taped to prevent rattle or grounding. Keep searching this site or g-35 one of them has pics of the wire connectors. Or you can remove the cover completely and they are easily identified. Good luck

I highly suggest you go in there and check for wires yourself. All of the information I read pointed to the fact that Journey Coupes will work, but turns out it didn't for me. It's not that difficult to open it, but it's a pain to put it back on without scratching things.
