Has anyone tried to put the m5 paddle shifters on the 550 sport. And if so, did it work properly. I did a search but could not find it if anyone has previously asked this question. D

The OP has an '08 with the LCI (electronic) shifter. For LCI the shift +/- signals are sent over a single wire vs. separate wires for pre-LCI, so I'm thinking programming would be required at a minimum -- if the standard shiftbox ECU will even recognize the paddles.

I spoke to patrick the other day and he informed me that he had plug and play and also can change the way that our shifters wk. for ex. instead of pulling(upshift) and pushing (down sift) he can make left down shift only and right upshift only just like it should have been.
