Apolgies for using info/pics of external site but just wanted to bring this to the Golf Mk5 DSG family and see what they thought.
Hello all,
Just seen these and was wondering if anyone has seen similar or even got as I know when I had the DB9, its paddles were larger and were nice to look at and use. The Golf ones aren't bad but I guess eveything has room for improvement.

O-Shift GT & O-Shift S Installation Guide & Airbag Module Removal
1. Disconnect the battery
2. Remove the air bag unit from the steering wheel (Don't have to disconnect from the steering wheel)
3. Unscrew the control buttons on the steering wheel.
4. Unscrew the 2 screws that hold the factory shift paddles.
5. Unplug and remove the factory shift paddles.
6. Use a small screwdriver to poke the king pin out from the factory paddles.
7. Separate the factory paddle and its bracket. (Be careful of losing the small springs inside the bracket)
8. Replace the O-Shift onto the factory bracket with the small springs, then put the king pin back to lock it up.
9. Put the modified paddles back on the steering wheel and plug them back.
10. Put the control buttons back, then the air bag module.
11. Connect the battery.
