I've looked into this from the M5(same as M6) for my non M e92. There's going to be an additional wiring setup for sure to light it up as for the paddles to fit the mounting area of the rear of the steering wheel, I never got that far. But the DCT paddles you guys have are a direct plug and play on non M e9x with paddle shifting.

hmm sucks! bmw is getting cheaper...or i just bought the cheapest M... they should have made it across the board for all M's since they were being producing (lighted ones) for M6 and M5

Or you're driving a 3 series. BMW, and every other manufacturer for that matter, always does little things like this for higher-up models.

Infact the 3 series shifters are better then the DCT-M3

And the M6 costs $110k+. Somewhere in that gap they've accounted for upgrades and novelties.
