Does anybody know if you can do this on a lease? Also if you can, can the service department do it for you. My parents insist i don't work on a leased car. PLease help me out cuz i desperately want paddles!! Thank you
I have all the materials ready to install, but i have one question... in the video, where he has the ground wire scotch locked....
Is the ground wire cut and spliced into the new wire or did he just tap into the ground and not cut?
The reason i ask is because im looking at the harness right now and the ground wire also runs to each of the paddle switches. so if i cut , wont it lose the signal to the switch????
I believe paddle bolt is m5x .8 or m6 x1.0. Ground I truly don't remember I believe it was 10mm. Def metric. When I get to work I can verify paddle bolts.
Ok. Paddle bolts are m5x0.8. For sure dorman part number 785124 at advance auto. Ground I believe is m8x1.25. I'm not 100% on this one and I don't have time to take wheel off today. I'm 95% sure. Dorman part 980425
Done! I' ve been wanting to do this mod for a looong time. Thanks for the guidance Goober, could not have done it wiothout your help! Im adding some pics of how i spliced the harness by tapping into the orange/black wire for the ground just to help illustrate to others interested in this mod since you could not really see that in your vid.. Hope it Helps.
Such a fun lil mod!
That was goober that swapped clusters, not me. I just installed the paddles. Goob and I seem to be on the same page though, as im willing to bet he got that cluster from ebay. The same one I had my eye on..... but at least it went to a knowledgeable member of the forum. And yes I think we need a diy on the cluster swap.
