DSG paddle extension

Who has successfully replaced their tiny paddles with some of a more sensible size and for a reasonable price i.e. <£100.

Aren't they more than £100 though?

Most paddle extensions are around the £150 mark including the TID styling ones

It just seems a lot of money for what they are.

The OSIR ones look good. I take it they replace the factory ones fully, and they are not just a stick on cover? If this is true how hard is it to replace the paddle sh!ts with the OSIR ones. The rubber effect cover on my paddles is starting to split and peel away so I wouldn’t mind replacing them.
