I just bought an automatic 2014 3lt Z51 (torch red / kalahari ). Im wondering if changing the paddle shifters is possible.. I don't know why but I'm thinking Ferrari yellow on the shifters... whats your thoughts?

<p>You sure can...find a Vendor to paint them for you. &nbsp;There are aftermarket paddle shifters available that are even larger too. &nbsp;Mine are done in Carbon Fiber.....</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://s1278.photobucket.com/user/stevenbell1957/media/2014%20C7%20Corvette/949839AA-656C-42BC-87F3-020E4E209B1E_zps4ah6vk5b.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="http://i1278.photobucket.com/albums/y512/stevenbell1957/2014%20C7%20Corvette/949839AA-656C-42BC-87F3-020E4E209B1E_zps4ah6vk5b.jpg" /></a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://s1278.photobucket.com/user/stevenbell1957/media/2014%20C7%20Corvette/0F50C3D4-9631-4C6D-953D-297A5EE64EE9_zps8hbtsdha.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="http://i1278.photobucket.com/albums/y512/stevenbell1957/2014%20C7%20Corvette/0F50C3D4-9631-4C6D-953D-297A5EE64EE9_zps8hbtsdha.jpg" /></a></p>

Thanks for the reply and photos Steven! The only reason I wouldn't want to paint them is because I don't want to delete the text on them. Where could I buy them, and how hard to remove and install? thanks again! Beautiful car by the way! On a side note, I noticed your blue angel patch, did you fly?

What is the "FAV" button oriented differently in each pic of your wheel?

S2T paddles.

Larger
Feel better than factory units.
Many size and some color options.
Easy to install (or so I was told, Caravaggio installed mine when doing the steering wheel.

Track/station up and down

I love those! Thats exactly what I'm looking for... SS or yellow... Ill google S2T... thanks!

vettnutt

I know what they are for. Notice that they are in two different orientations. One is upside down in one pic and rotated correctly in the other. Just curious. I like the CF.

Z06 1of38

Mine are the same

Z06 1of38

Mine are the same as his second pic. Must be a photo thing in the other one.

Yeah...looks like Steven's "FAV" was photoshopped onto the pictures.

Funny story (I need new glasses) when I first bought my C7 I thought the buttons said "FAN" and was wondering why they never worked. :-)

We got the S2T Black Anodized B2 shifters for our 2013 CTS V with A6. They are perfectly shaped and angled for the V steering wheel. The same black anodized finish would probably be a good match for the C7 wheel.

However, I'm not sure the B2 paddles would be an optimum match for the A6 or A8 C7 wheels. It would appear a little big for my taste. One of the other slightly smaller/thinner S2T paddles might be a better match.

I definitely would not use the B2 paddles as a replacement for the Rev Match paddles on the M7 C7 cars. Way to intrusive for that application.

Not only that, the arrows are at different angles in different pictures. Shopped.

Any chance these paddles come in yellow?

Thank you so much, where would I be without you! /s

Obviously I've already looked at S2t's page and not found yellow on the list. My question was whether I could get any paddle shifters at all (even a snap on solution) in yellow short of painting them myself. I can't find it on Google or bing or duck duck go or wherever, hence the question here hoping for guidance from folks who've been into modding corvettes for a while.

These are easy to replace. Pull the steering wheel and they are held on by (2) small torx screws that hold the whole module in place. Most people have had to remove/replace these when upgrading their steering wheels - unless they have used whatever was already on the core.

You guys are good! Yes, the first set came in wrong-the lower switch was upside down. But yes, as you can see, in the 2nd picture, it has since been corrected!


Here is a picture of the Carbon Fiber steering wheel as it sits now. You can see the switch has been corrected and a center red stripe has been added.

Absolutely perfect C7 steering wheel. Is that a one off custom job or is it available to mere mortals?
