Here's an email I just received that may be of some interest (especially to those in Southern California):
“I am the creator of V.S. Paddle-shift Retrofit kits for BMW steptronic. I am in the midst of working out a kit to retrofit the paddles for Mini CVT in the US market. Feel free to visit my website at: bmw-paddleshift-retro.com
I am looking for someone in the Los Angeles to work on the project. If you have any info or know someone, please let me know.”
Regards,
Vincent
If you're interested and in the LA area you can contact Vince here: paddle.shift@comcast.net

Vince makes a great product for the Steptronic xmission in BMWs. Those who are his customers have been very pleased with quality, attention to detail and support.
Check the E46 board for comments regarding his work.

Hey all,
The kit should be ready in about 1.5 weeks time.
Check out the website for more details later.
Thanks.
