Do a search as it been covered before. It can be done but the wiring is different and has to be modified.

Old to M3 is straight swap.
Old to new is easier, but as jukbeemerboy says, it needs some wiring mods.
New to old is more difficult as it needs resistors fitting.

Everyone is different, but having had both, I prefer to use the old type, although the new ones look. Call me old fashioned, but I prefer functionality to looks!

m3 paddles are a straight swop, the lci paddles which you refer to do need rewiring and are not that simple but you can buy rewired ones off ebay from a place called Nexon motors although they are quite expensive. the lci ones are much nicer to use but that's my opinion!
