Since we created this conversion kit in 2008, it's allowed enthusiasts to easily add OEM BMW paddle shifters to their E9x E8x BMW that did not come with paddles from the factory.

The retrofit can be performed with common tools in about 2 hours at home by following our step-by-step printed install guide. The necessary OEM part numbers for this upgrade are included in the guide. Made in the USA with OEM BMW connectors.

Paddle shifters will add more fun, value, and performance to your BMW. Paddles shifters will enhance your driving experience and allow you to safely change gears without your hands ever leaving the steering wheel. Paddles are activated by hitting a paddle in 2007 and newer vehicles. Some pre-2007 models will need to switch the gear shifter into "S" mode to use paddles. The gear you are in is displayed in the instrument cluster. Read our FAQ and install the guide below.

Perfect Summer Essential – Comfortable and Breathable!
Size: Medium, Color: 1 White
I’m really impressed with these cotton pants. They are incredibly lightweight and breathable, which makes them perfect for the beach or just staying cool in the summer heat. The elastic waist and drawstring ensure a perfect fit, and the 100% cotton fabric feels high-quality and soft. I ordered my usual medium, and they fit perfectly—just the right balance of relaxed and stylish. Definitely a 5-star purchase for anyone needing comfortable casual trousers!

100% cotton, but still easy care
Size: Large, Color: Khaki 2
I bought 5 of these pants and I am glad that I did. The elastic waists are easy pull up and down (especially for the mobility handicapped like me). They wash and dry nicely - I don't bother ironing them. They are nice, light summer pants (good year round in FL).

Sizing is off.
Size: Small, Color: 3 Black
Much shorter than expected. Poor fit in the legs as well, at least for me. I’d say they are a couple inches shorter than the size chart. I expected them to be short, but not waiting for a flood. Material was nice but overall not a good fit for me.
