C350 SE Coupe (05) paddle shift upgrade ?

LOL You've got to be joking, that's why the rest of us and you, have to pay higher insurance premiums!
 
From another C350 SC owner.... I think you'll like it, good value car if you want a practical 2 door with plenty of smooth power. Mine has an almost completely opposite set of options :)

damit... i missed the steering wheel i was looking at, it sold this morning whilst i was out looking at the car again ..... good new.... i got the car, 55 plate C350 coupe :) pick it up next friday :bannana:

Richard, is there any chance you could post up a list of compatible steering wheel part numbers, car was first registered Sept 05, that way i'll stand a better chance when i see another of knowing if it's right, here's the interior shot of my car.

Am i right in thinking that part number A 171 460 22 03 will fit, but is buttons and not paddles, and the switches/airbag might not fit right ?
 
Anyone know the answer to the above question ? ... i have an option on one of these, however i feel it is the earlier type, with buttons rather than paddles, and has 2 small silver round buttons/labels on the steering wheel face showing "-" and "+" symbols
 
erm.... the +/- buttons on the face of the steering wheel are for the onboard computer and volume controls..
 
also these part numbers, same look as previous one.... A171 460 22 09 9E37 and A 171 460 22 03 9E37
The 9E37 bit i undestand is the colour (black :) )


the plus and minus labels/buttons are hard to describe, without getting confused with the ones next to the airbag, so here's some pictures :)

Problem is i think these have this style of "button" shift rather than the paddle type i want, and wont be able to switch them to the AMG aluminium ones either

no problems, strange aren't they - wasn't entirely sure how to describe them, i'm not even sure if they are actual buttons, or just labels ! - should have posted pictures first time around !

Anyway, i 'might' have found what i was looking for, or more like it found me, BRABUSK8 pm'd me and he has a A 171 460 4503 9E37 which should do me subject to cost..... fingers crossed :)
