Yes, beating a dead horse....ANOTHER thread about paddle shifters...

Who (if anyone) makes a paddle shifter for the 2015 LT? Will the Vitesse or Hurst work with this model year?

Thanks everyone!

Here is what you want:

Notice the switches on the shifter.

Here is where you get it:

Hey nyrfan... is that a throttle controller between the climate control knobs and is that Fob to the left of your shift lever what controls it? If so, how does using the controller effect your gas milieage. (I know... who cares, right? I'm not concerned with mpgs but I am just curious if there is much effect if you set the controller to, say, SP5)

**OP - sorry for the momentary hijack.

I saw that, and it seems like a viable second option, but I want to go more sports car and less muscle car. Besides - it looks like a giant baseball to me. Thanks though!

No worries

Yes that is the TBC, and no the FOB to the left is for my DRL, not the TBC. If you look on the controller you'll see 2 little buttons, that's how it's controlled.

As for MPG, I've driven around 300 miles so far on SP3 (goes from 0-9, 9 being the most aggressive) and I've noticed zero change so far, still getting 16.1 MPG's.

As an FYI- 5 would be a quite aggressive setting on the SS, 3-4 would be the most I'd go for DD.

Our Paddle Shifters work perfectly on the 2015, it's the same Steering wheel / OEM paddles from 2012 and Up. See picture below

Vitesse paddle shifters are awesome.
No regrets.

Sounds good, I suspected as much, but in some places you say 2010+ and in others, 2010 - 2014.

Thanks though!

You can see on our website www.vitesse-motorsports.com

There are 2 types:
2010/11 use a rounded shape connection.
2012+ use a square connection with a pin that holds it in place.

You're right, will update our website for the 2015

Awesome, thank you! I was hoping you would comment and say exactly what you did - I really like your design
