Finally I got ans to my issue, my car does come with sport steering paddle shift. Two years back I get the workshop to replace the multifunction button as the volume button spoilt, recently only I tried to use the paddle shift but it won’t work. Took out the airbag and then realized the multifunction connector is only 4 wire instead of 6 for paddle shift wheel. That’s when I realized they given me the wrong button. Worst is they not going to be responsible for it as it’s been 2 years they had replaced 😭. Due to lockdown periods and all can’t drive my car much to fiddle with the paddleshift. I guess I have to get the retrofit kit for my non-paddleshift multifunction button for them to work again. Thx for the contents m8.
Question - after i retrofit them paddle shifters, can i perhaps get any of the modern paddles and change them? Will it work? Talking about them magnetic ones, or any just prettier looking ones? Thanks
It’s awesome content like this that makes the U.K. just can’t get enough of Jonathan’s phenomenal mods, progress and channel. Excellent. Great difference eh. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
One question, the buttons on the paddle shift wheel should work with it... all this procedure of wiring inside the wheel is needed when the steering wheel buttons on the paddle shifter wheel were swapped at some point with buttons from a non paddle wheel right? I mean if you would buy an Oem paddle wheel (including buttons made specifically for paddles ) you won’t need the extra wiring inside the wheel?
I'm looking into buying a e91 wagon and the ugly steering wheel didn't fully convince me but now I might be going to pick it up because of this video. New subscriber 🤙🏽
I need to get one on my X1. i want longer pointed red ones on her. This mod is definitely a must do and it fell on my list of mods to do on my car. I've already doubled the value of my x1 and everyone compliments me on her. Cant wait
I’m confused, why do you need the steering wheel kit, when the steering wheel with the paddle shifters was already functioning as a steering wheel with paddle shifters, so can’t you just change the complete steering wheel wiring from the paddle shifter wheel , to the non paddle shifter wheel ? Am I missing something ??
if your car does not have paddles from factory, you cannot put in a paddle shifting steering wheel it wont work, therefore you need the wiring harness to be able to use the paddles
hi i have a question i know you need the buttons from a sport steering wheel without shifters if you want them to work with a paddle shifter steering wheel but can’t i just take the buttons from my base model steering wheel non sport? any differences?
I just installed mine but when I put it in sport it doesn’t say DS on the cluster but when I shift the paddles work, only thing is after about 10-15 seconds of not using the paddles the car switches back to normal drive mode…. Any idea how to fix?
I had the same question. Currently I have the CD/FM and airflow buttons with paddle shifters in my LCi E90. Can I make my paddle shifters work with the current configuration? Another follow up question, in case if I do consider swapping with the rhombus and star button switch (Part number 9123289), will the rhombus and star switches work for an LCi?
@@hhiijjkkaabbccdd Did you guys figure out a solution? I was thinking just taking old pin 4 and 6 out and then putting the nadi pins in and just leave it. Would that work?
Hope this isn't a silly question, but does the nadi kit come with the wheel and airbag and the wires, or just the wires and i'd have to buy the wheel separately?
Yeah but you need to modify the LCI paddles by removing two resisters in each then a couple solders. Also a little easy re-wire. Seems hard but it’s easy
Is anyone having the same problem as me, when i plug the 3 way connection only the paddles work, when i do the oem connection the steering wheel and oem shiftronic weork but not the paddles, pretty sure i put green wire in pin 4 and orange wire in pin 2
Wait, did you do the retro fit into the non paddle harness just to show people? Because you coulda just swapped the buttons straight over instead of going through the wiring for The wheel and just wired the shifter to the slip ring
Got ya cuz I was about to say you had a perfectly wired up harness for the controls with the first control set up. Good on ya for still Showing how to use that section of harness in the retrofit
@@michaelcater6754 so u saying I can use the controls of a base pre lci? I don't have sport steering controls. I only have a spare m3 wheel with the airbag
@@15Godrick yes! You can use a pre lci control, you just have to hard wire it like he shows in the video because the actual plugs on the back of the pre lci controls, do not go to anything, they are blanks. So you can manually wire them up and it works the same! Just gotta make sure you tap the up shift/down shift wires to the shifter wiring harness up into the slip ring behind the wheel and it will work! I retro fit paddles to a non paddle wheel by carving my shit out and hard wired it, works perfect!
Hey I did the same retrofit as you from non sport to sport and my paddles do not work. Is that steering wheel harness what I need? I only got the paddle shifter harness from burger. Thanks appreciate any feedback
So you cant upgrade the wheel to look/feel better if you dont have a 335? 🤣 i got a e328 daily and e92 m3 fun car i hated my non sport wheel from getting from car to car, hmm im a bum than i guess
@@codyhamton Sir, you do realize that i never said 328is cant come with paddles. I sold Atleast 4 328is with the M-Sports package. Sir, you should learn how to Read before commenting. Here, I can use emojis too 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bro this kit is a game changer 🔥🔥
It is bro!!
Can I purchase the steering wheel harness separately from the shifter harness?
How long did it take for y’all’s to get delivered?
@@704jacob7 sorry I see you order, it shouldn’t be any later then Wednesday. Unfortunately waiting one a part to complete the harness!
Where do you buy the cables to connect them?
Does this work on every BMW?
And what if you want left to downshift and right to upshift?
and does it work on Normal Automatic?
How old bmw works?

I was wondering the same thing, thinking the plug and play ones off amazon for this same wheel will probably work. Going to order and see.
Would the shifters still work if I don’t want the working buttons on the steering wheel?????
Great upgrade, would recommend the Nelson Racing Billet paddles upgrade for even more fire 👍🏾
Does your sport mode still work ??

i have a 2012 lci 335i with no paddles.. if i buy a pre lci wheel with paddles and buy this kit will it work?
Did it ? I’m trying figure that out
That airbag fits all those wheels ?
Does your car have the sport package? Also is it auto or manual?
hi i have a question i know you need the buttons from a sport steering wheel without shifters if you want them to work with a paddle shifter steering wheel but can’t i just take the buttons from my base model steering wheel non sport? any differences?
Did u get an answer? I'm coming from base model as well
Where did you get the steering wheel?
So left and right is upshift and you need to push it back?
I just installed mine but when I put it in sport it doesn’t say DS on the cluster but when I shift the paddles work, only thing is after about 10-15 seconds of not using the paddles the car switches back to normal drive mode…. Any idea how to fix?
You should try xhp transmission tune after you got the paddles now
Got any idea on how you retrofit paddle shifters on a 5 series g30 without buying a new wheel
Bro, both steering wheel MFB plugs had no wires in 4&6..I bought a msport steering wheel with paddles and it has nothing in pins 4&6
How long was the battery disconnected before you did the swap? As I have seen in other videos they waited an hour before they did the swap.
will this work with e90 320d. 2006
I have a 330i automatic 6speed do i buy the dct or regular kit?
tip: dont open air bag immediatly after turning of batterie you should however wait for 20 mins atleast before doing so
So with the kit would you be able to rewire it so that you have the right side being up shit and the left side being down shift
Can you do this on non sport models?
IT IS WORK FOR BMW E60????!!!
Best video on this particular subject. Thank you.
Wow, thank you!
This work on an e60??
could you explain how i can still make it work with paddle shifter steering wheel buttons without getting new buttons from non paddle shifter wheel

Is this for the E53 aswell id guess so as looks like the same wheel (Australia
If u buy the kit does it come with a whole new steering wheel?
Only the harness
Hope this isn't a silly question, but does the nadi kit come with the wheel and airbag and the wires, or just the wires and i'd have to buy the wheel separately?
Just the wires. You’d have to buy the other stuff separately
@@JonathanWeekswhere tou buy nadi kit ?
I have a 2009 328 if I just buy a mashimaro wheel with pre lci shifters can I just use the harness with the wheel and hook it up?
So I have a problem I bought a 335d and it came with the paddle shifters but they don't work
beautiful work! 👌🏼😎
Hell yeah bro 🔥🔥🔥👌👌
will this work with a 320d e90 pre lci, can anyone confirm?
Hello , for a 2012 LCI and lci steering wheel paddle shift i only need 1 harness right ?
Yeah but you need to modify the LCI paddles by removing two resisters in each then a couple solders. Also a little easy re-wire. Seems hard but it’s easy

did you figure it out?
@@warisfarooq5404 yeah he sent me just the steering wheel harness
Ain't it that the left paddle downshifts and the right one upshifts?
i dont get it , what has to be lci to make it work , the steering paddle shift or the car ...
Has to be a pre lci or dct paddle shift steering wheel. This kit wont work with the lci paddle shifters
Great walkthrough and nice upgrade! Keep up the good work 👍🏼😃
I have a non sport, no paddle wheel. Whats the part number for the sport buttons without paddles?
Or can I use my nonsport buttons?
Thanks a million.
Does this work for LCI models too ?
Pre lci paddle shifters or Dct only unfortunately

How the hell were you able to remove those paddle shifters connectors so easily😂😢
dope, but the fake carbon is disgusting

Ive watched this abou 10 times and why you switch buttons trims and wheeels makes no real sence
