S2TPP Replacement DSG / Tiptronic Paddle Shifters Group Buy

Me too! 1 x Black set please!

Got a date you're going to order by once you have the 10?

I definitely want some, but still debating whether I should, given the whole tampering with the airbag and potential insurance issues....

Once there are 10 people committed to purchasing (which by this rate, should be some time before the morning), I'll send an email to the contact at S2TPP and they'll make a page on their site where VWwc members can place their own orders for these paddles. Since it takes 2 to 3 weeks for shipping, I'd say that people would have them in the next month.

You need to decide for yourself whether you're up to performing this work, but there is no requirement to tamper with the airbag. All you're doing is removing the horn/airbag cover on the steering wheel. If you're not sure you're capable of doing this, or if you're concerned about possible issues down the track (insurance or otherwise), you could pay an authorised VW workshop/specialist to do it for you. One member has even had his dealer agree to fit the paddles to their car prior to delivery!

Alright guys, now that we've had commitment for 10 pairs of DSG paddles to be purchased, S2TPP have setup the group buy page for us. The link is accessible from the S2TPP Contact Page, all the way at the bottom. Or you could access it directly here.

The group buy will be accepting orders until August 31st. Individual orders will begin shipping August 12th. Expect 2-3 weeks delivery time from the date of purchase, unless delayed due to high customer demand.

Please continue to post here to let us know if you have taken up this offer, as the feedback and numbers will be useful/appreciated.

Big thanks to Michael Bello from S2T Performance Products for his assistance with this

I've also updated the first post with this information. Please keep the thread on topic, cheers

Hmm now there is an idea, might make a call.

PS: Stupid question, but what colour are the ones in the first photo of the Mk6 wheel?

Black.
Sunlight will make the Black blend in nicely with the 'black' of the MKV or MK6 interior. The Silver are very obviously brushed aluminium looking. On other sites, R32 owners have noted that it nicely matches the R32's silver trim. Silver may go well with the R trim too, but I'll personally stick with the Black

Good to know, I'm checking on dealer fit. Not sure why I need them but they're only $200 so what the hell.

Hey all. Are there any more interested parties for this?

Also stephen8512, Jasonpb and jamjia, did you guys order your sets?

If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask, I'll do my best to answer, or I'll forward your question to my group buy contact at S2TPP. Cheers.
