Paddle Shifters

Purchased 2012 M3 with DCT but it has no paddle shifter, Is it possible to install paddle shifters?

Did someone replace your steering wheel with a manual wheel? Are there cutouts for the DCT shifters on the back of the wheel?

Yes you can buy shift paddles if your steering wheel has the cutouts for them. I have a set for sale, PM me.

If you need a new steering wheel let me know. I can set you up with a custom wheel in any finish, color or shape you want.

Do you know if there switch assy are still there? If not, you are going to need more than just the paddles.
You need something like these:

The DCT shift paddles connect into the steering wheel switch modules. I have one set of each, used and in pristine condition. Can let u have it for cheaper than eBay. Let me know.
