No,but I want some!

 

Look nice - Cost!?

 

mmm I've found this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Jaguar-OEM-Accessory-Aluminium-Gearchange-Paddle-2014-F-Type-T2R6547-/161027838525 I was expecting £50

 

Lol...I`v just decided plastic will do!!...Similar after market paddles are available for other Marquee`s and the one thing they all have in common is the ridiculous price.

 

Ouch. If they did them in carbon fibre I'd be all over them.

Mmmmm....Yes please, I've always said the plastic ones felt flimsy, cheap and of questionable quality.

Aluminium would give that solid, satisfying feel :gt-happyup:

 

Just noticed..they are for the F-type...I wonder if they will fit the XF?

 

What you want is something like this

 

I can't see any fixing points, how can one fit these? at what cost?

 

I wonder if they will fit the XF

It came up on TOPIx under my XF VIN and it says 'All Vehicles'.

 

Where's D3GGY when you need him.....he must be getting bored with footrests by now!

 

Just spotted this thread. Just going to check out the cost. Don't forget though they are lit on the symbols.

 

I'm pretty sure the Evoque ones are the same pretty colours. I may well be able to get 20% off RRP

 

This chap fitted some to an XF

How much!!!! Nearly fell off my chair.

 

From what I read BMW ones will possibly fit over the existing ones with a little dremel action

 

This makes me laugh. When I got the XF I questioned the quality on another forum and got my first public warning...lol

Would love some replacement in alloy as I have on BMW's past and present. They just feel better.

Ha! Yes, I remember it well and I was also admonished for suggesting they felt cheap and could be improved considerably.

 

The price of T2R 6547 about 300gbp, the price the similar evoque alu.pads.

 

Ah forgot, I think these pads is similar as evoque pads, but for evoque is possible to order red alu.pads

So the better to think how make the aluminum or stainless covers for plastic pads

 

Want them! They need to drop the price a smidge though

 

Are they illuminated like the std ones?

 

They must be illuminated as standard pads in F-Type!

 

Bringing this thread back to life. What are the OEM colours available to straight swap on an XF?

 

Silver from Jag and LR; the red from Land Rover

 

I've only seen one car with aluminium paddles and they were silver.

All the Ftypes I've seen had gold painted plastic paddles.

The red aluminum pads available from Land Rover

 

Here is the link how looks the red pads in XKR: http://babyrr.com/forum/Thread-RED-ALUMINUM-PADDLE-SHIFTERS

 

Just read the thread and the aluminium seem to be £255 from Dan at Duckworth.

 

I'm afraid it was the old price the new about 300gbp

 

I'v been known to waste money....however £300 for gear paddles is a tad pricey to say the least...but then in my humble opinion there is nowt wrong with the standard paddles

 

Your humble opinion is spot on though in this case!!

 

Well it is for me too Shells. I'll stick to the standards!

Interesting. It looks to me like the silver and red ones are aluminium and not illuminated. The symbols are actually holes in those ones. The gold ones though are painted plastic and symbols light up as per standard black version. Is this correct?

I'm liking the idea of the silver ones in my car.

 

Yep. That's what had been mentioned several times before.

Ok, also the silver and red ones are taller apparently. I used the gold ones in an F type at Thruxton and they felt the same as standard.

 

The gold ones are plastic and the same size as standard black:

- downchange T2R1042
- upchange T2R1043
