i have to admit, the convenience of both paddles being able to up and down shift was a nice feature especially in long sweeping 360 degree highway off ramps. i have driven friends cars with the traditional pull-pull paddles and was really sold on the "F1" style format, which is why i went this route.

I'm keeping my old wheel, so i could swap paddles if needed. i used my paddles 90% of the time, so it will be interesting how i feel about these in the next few months! i am enjoying them now!

as for the paddle extensions, they do have the same 3m double back tape used on gopro mounts. i have pulled on these extensions pretty hard and they don't budge. we'll see how it holds over time.

the thickness of the paddles surprised me, they are quite heavy and stout. if the tape doesn't hold, i already have plans to drill and countersink the holes to mechanical attach them to the paddle.

i will take pics and post if that happens.
