What have you done to your MK 7 today ?

[Guzzle]

I've done about 25 miles since lockdown started. Haven't been to a petrol station in 8 weeks, and still have over half a tank left

These arrived in the post today, wasn't sure I was that bothered given I hardly use the paddles but for less than £16 I thought I'd see what they were like.

They were extremely easy to fit and I think look great. I went for silver as I thought they would fit in better with the silver parts of the steering wheel and the colour match is really good. Also I wanted them to stand out, I think black may have blended into the background too well. They also feel good with the three grooves on the reverse, subtle but tactile. All in all, excellent. Still not sure if I'll use them much though but when I do, it should be a better experience than the standard paddles

Looking good and I agree that silver goes well.
Where did you get those from, I have seen some on Ali Express but not sure on the quality.

Is the fit good? No wobbling about on the pins?

I've only tried them static so far and just to be sure they were fitted properly but they seem absolutely spot on. I'd go so far to say they look and feel oem.

I fitted the black version of Watts paddles. Driven the car a couple of times, and they work really well. I was a little concerned at the angle of the upper parts, but they line up nicely with your finger ends when your hands are in a normal driving position. I’ve been trying to post a photo of mine above, but having trouble with imagur!
