Hey Frank:
Hope the UDonkey is ok, I'm following your thread with the sludge buildup and it's sad to hear.
As far as the kit goes, I haven't looked into them much as I have the trusty 5-speed manual, but I know one of our members has retrofitted paddles on his 4.8is, why not PM him and see what he had to do (what kit he has as well)

Did any of my links work out as far as the sellers overseas goes, and are you sending your steering wheel out or buying an additional recovered one?
