E53 steering wheel conversion to E46 SMG M3 Paddle shift wheel--Instructions and pics

[mrbmwx5]

Clicking the paddle is no difference then moving the joy stick .
No lag due switching to sport mode. It just cool mod and I do like and had enjoyed it .
.... The wheel does fit and direct swap to all E53 from 2000-2006 ...

Is the e46 M3 wheel the only way to get paddles on?

I have a facelift and think the M3 wheel looks pre-facelift (nitpicking, I know), just curious if there are other ways to put the paddles on.

You can buy the paddle kit from ECStuning.com and add them to your old wheel plus you need new clock spring.
