Brilliant. My M340i is due in December and one of the modifications I wanted to undertake was a swap for some red aluminium paddle shifters, as I don’t like that the rear of the stock paddles are plastic (they’re aluminium backs on the M1/240s and feel far more premium). Thanks for the tutorial, they look great!
Yes, but it’s not really a button, it’s a aluminium cover. I need to try a button from the X5M or a M8 since there is no red button on the market yet. Once I get one, I’ll post it here.
Hopefully you’ll get hold of a button or someone will manufacture a good replacement. I swapped one out on my M240i and it was great to add the colour (especially if the paddles match). I’ll subscribe for future updates! Thanks very much
Is there a reason why you swapped out the oem ones with the extenders on them, for these? Are the red extenders ontop of the oem ones not good enough? I was leaning towards the extenders that lay over the oem shifters, that way to avoid taking the airbag out..
Extenders or new paddle shifters, they both do the job. I prefer the look and the feeling of the new paddles. But the extenders are great if you don’t want to mess with the airbag. ;)
@@samaelic I appreciate your response. Question…did your old add-on-extensions ever touch the steering wheel and get in the way of paddle shifting or prevent you from being able to shift? I had read a review somewhere that it would prevent some people from being able to paddle shift due to it making contact with the steering wheel…
Hi did you stitch the suede cover on the steering wheel ? As i have seen in china they selling cover and can be stitched. ? I wana do that to my car steering thanks
@@tonyzheng1247 there are 2 types of spoiler. The bigger one is the carbon fiber spoiler. The one I have is part number 51192455880. It is matte black and I painted it gloss black.
I have a question. I have a 2019 G20, but i dont have those holes on the back of the steering wheel. I have leather wrapped and see a small indent, but no holes. Do i need to puncture the leather?
This is not the normal m performance steering wheel is it? I only see it on the Internet with other Carbon Elements, where did you get this from, or the Elements?
It is the original steering wheel with a steering wheel cover and the carbon elements are trim pieces placed on top. You can find everything on eBay or AE :)
@@samaelic i noticed when i found the listing on ebay there were three color choices but i don’t see where you can select which one you get, did you choose red or was it just sent to you
images.app.goo.gl/R1pywMmF8kyDF7Nk6 Take a close look at the steering wheel without the airbag and visualize it when you give it another try. Aim to the middle of the steering wheel.
Well Done! You made it look so easy :) Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to install mine.

I notice you also have a red start button? Did you do this yourself too?
Yes, but it’s not really a button, it’s a aluminium cover. I need to try a button from the X5M or a M8 since there is no red button on the market yet. Once I get one, I’ll post it here.
And 4 months to go to enjoy your M340i, you will love it ;)

Thanks very much
thank you would be great to have another trim remove guidance film
Excellent video. Very helpful. Will definitely be changing my standard ones.
Made that look simple thanks,
Nice review, didn’t realise it was that easy. Might need to do the same. Cheers

No, it didn’t touch and no problem shifting gears.
Great video man. I was wondering whether you also install the carbon fibre trims? Do you need to take the steering wheel off?
Very informative vid! Thanks for sharing!
How you do carbon on your steering wheel?
Nice video! how does the new one feel？ I noticed there is no slot cut at the down side of the steering wheel, will that shorten the shift distance?
this was very helpful. Thanks!!
Could you please share a Link to the product?
What is the part number for these can someone share a link to where to purchase them from ?
Thank’s a lot.

That’s correct, you have to puncture the leather where the indents are.
@@samaelic thank you!
Hi! How did you get the red line on the steering wheel, did you add it on OEM or is this a different steering wheel. Cheers

It’s a steering wheel cover :)
Rednose M340i where did you get it from, link?

@@samaelic nice thanks for the reply! How much did you pay for the carbon elements:)?
@@vck1178 I think it was around 20€.
@@samaelic awesome, will order the 340i soon :) and get those peaces from ebay :) thanks
What do you think, saphire black with normal grill, or saphire black with shadowline, or mineral gray with shadowline :)?
What size screw is the torx that hold the paddleshifters?
I think it was a t20
Hey man would this work for my 2019 X5 G05? This looks insanely beautiful and wanna add it to my car
Yes it would work, if you have the steering wheel with paddles.
Hello we’re did you get carbon fibre things on steering wheel ? Thanks
Check eBay of AE :)
No need disconnect the airbag??
No, that’s not necessary. Just let it rest on top of your steering wheel.
Where did you get the shifters from? Thanks
Ebay (or AE), search for Jogon.
Nice bro, Thank you
thank you for help
You’re welcome.
how do the paddles feel do they feel better than stock when you press it
They feel better and firmer.
@@samaelic i noticed when i found the listing on ebay there were three color choices but i don’t see where you can select which one you get, did you choose red or was it just sent to you
I had the option to choose the color, so I chose red.
This cockpit is awesome!! Are u liking the new M340i my friend?
audiophilemetallian
Yes i do! It’s an awesome car 👍🏼
The interior is a big upgrade and it has such a great engine.
Rednose M340i Good. What was ur previous vehicle? Does It meet ur sport need in stock? Rwd or awd?
My previous car was a F30 330d.
And yes, the car is fast enough stock.
No RWD here in Europe.
Can you post the link for the paddles please!!!!
Just type “Jogon paddle shifters BMW G20” in google 🙂.
@@samaelic that’s so strange. I can’t find them.

its not that easy. I tried doing it and was unsuccessful. There is no slot to push the lever (pin). Having such a difficult time with it!
Just be patient and you will succeed :)
@@samaelic I tried just about everything. I was unsuccessful.

@@samaelic I did. But no matter how many times I push, I feel like I’m not in that slot with the clip/lever. Maybe I’ll try one more time lol
where did you got these from ?
