Thanks Jeff. I talked to Gordon Wright a couple of months ago but haven't gotten back to him yet. I was waiting for spring to start tinkering with the SLK but it looks like I better order them now so I can get them in time for the springtime.

Most that have ordered and installed seem very happy with it!

I'm pleased with mine!

I have a set installed as well, very OEM look, worth the money definitely

Mine arrived today. Looking forward to installing them later

I installed mine but I haven't had an opportunity to try them out yet. I still have my car stored.

Just had mine fitted today and absolutely love them! Feel so nice behind the wheel and have also done away with the hard clicking noise the buttons had. Can't recommend them enough. Great job from Gordon and the team.

Ron Carterton 2005 SLK55 AMG. Yes, I have successfully fitted Paddle Shift Kit supplied by Gordon Wright! No problems at all other than taking considerable care snapping the control paddles into the existing sockets. Yes, they work ok.
Has anyone purchased new valve lifters for the M113 V8? I will swap them myself if I can buy new ones without needing the Reserve Bank of Australia backing me.

I installed G-Paddles on my 2006 SLK55 this weekend. It's a very simple installation and a nice upgrade from the buttons.
