C7 Paddle Shifter modification
Hey guys, I need some help,
I had a health issue a few years ago and lost the use of my right arm so I finally traded my C6 Manual in for a C 7 automatic. I can now keep my hand on the steering wheel at all times.
I was wondering if someone makes paddle shifters that will place both the up shift and the downshift paddles on the left side. (Right side paralysis)
Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
Thanks, Russkier

This company makes all kinds of adaptive gear. Don't know if they can help with the paddle shifters.

I would contact a company like FODAC that specializes in vehicle modifications for handicapped people. They at least could probably point you in the right direction.
I know a guy that had throttle/brake hand controls installed in his FRS and he tracks that thing Very cool.

Rick Conti did a VLOG about a guy with no arms that had bought a Z06 and had controls installed, might wanna look back a month or two and see if you can find out what company did the work.
