I did the mod today. Thanks for the useful video. I had decided to let a pro do the job, but after seeing this video, I went ahead and did it myself. The 350 steering wheel is a must have.
Thanks for watching! I'm glad you found it useful and I agree, it is a must have!
Excellent job, EXCELLENT! Awesome video, thanks for sharing.
Thanks! And thanks for watching!
A great video covers everything and no stone unturned !
Thanks!
Very well done video of the paddle shifter. clearly straight forward.

great video, now people with automatic transmission can watch this for their steering wheel install!
+Alfred Fontenot II thanks! Hopefully some people find it helpful!
great video, keepem coming. On a side note, I cut my battery cover so that it can be removed around the hood struts.
+BRIAN529 thanks! Yeah, I plan on cutting my cover at some point too.
Awesome Video!!! You made it very easy for me swap mine out!! I love the GT350 wheel.... Should have been stock on a GTJust Sayin.......TB
Thanks! I agree that it should have been standard on the GT.
nice video keep up the great work
+Ashton Sumner, thanks!
Hey, my Brotha' from anotha': Where were you when I needed your advice on the paddle shifter extensions blocking the airbag release holes? Yes, indeed--I had a major problem! You see, I want to install the GT350 wheel on my own 2017 GT. However, I permanently glued on my paddle shifter extensions with JB Weld epoxy. Oh, yeah! You guessed it! I was screwed! I absolutely could not reach the airbag release holes! I needed to take them off as a dry run to practice the steering wheel removal. So, what did I do? Sigh... I had to take my Dremel and ream holes though my aluminum paddle shifters (I have the same red ones you do). Yes, I did fuck them up doing that, but fortunately--I actually wanted to replace my paddle shifter extensions with the carbon fiber extensions anyway. Therefore, I was back into a winning situation as my destruction of my current paddle shifters meant I was able to remove the air bag and thus, the steering wheel! CJ Pony parts and the manufacturer of the paddle shifter extensions need to give the exact same warning you ingeniously gave: That is, THE PADDLE SHIFTER EXTENSIONS BLOCK THE HOLES TO THE AIRBAG RELEASE SPRINGS! In addition--you would think that the manufactures would have already provided notches in them so as to not block those damn holes!!! Geeeez!!!
Other videos are not as detailed or as specific with the paddle shifter change over. GOOD JOB, excellent video, saved me the $120 having the dealership make the swap. I'd like to know how you made or changed the center marker to white? My 50th is also white/black trim white stitching. I can see it would be a nice touch. Suggestions?
Thanks! Glad it helped you out. The strip on my steering wheel is covered with white vinyl. I don't think they sell it on their site, but if you call Anchor-Room.com they'll probably work something out for you. Just tell them you saw my video.
Hi, I know you posted this a long time ago. I just finished this process on my 19 GT. For some reason after reconnecting the battery I have a airbag light and code on my Ford pass app that I can't seem to remove even with a code scanner. Do you have any ideas of troubleshooting? So far the code scanner didn't work. I tried unplugging the positive and negative. Let it sit for an hour. Plugged it back in. Still showing airbag light and a code message on fordpass app
when you disconnect the battery does it reset the car trip odometer, curious as i have the trip1 as my time and mileage since day 1, love that wheel, have something similar coming in myself soon
+chris gonzales I wasn't paying much attention to it, but I think it does reset.
how did you manage to remove the paddle shifter extensions. The double sided tape seems to be holding on pretty tight and afraid to break something trying to get those things off?
I used a heatgun
Excellant Video.
Thanks!
Great video Bro
+Dark Man, thanks!
I need to visit the anchor room and the guy you use for tunes.
Yeah, definitely! They both do great work.
HI there, Great video, I have a automatic mustang same with you, I really want to know how to remove the paddle shifter extension. I used the 3M tape when I installed and now it's really tight. What do you suggest me to do when removing it? Thanks
Thanks, when I removed my extensions, I used a heat gun to help loosen the tape and then I used a plastic pry tool to get the extension off. Just be careful as the aluminum extensions get extremely hot.
Thanks for the reply, That was exactly what I was thinking, glad to know someone who had tried and worked
No problem!
NICE
Hey for the steering wheel why is the gt350r cheaper than the gt350 wheel? How is the steering wheel holding up?
I hadn't noticed a price difference, but it's been a while since I've looked. My guess would be because of the red stitching. The GT350 blends better with most interiors, so companies may have started discounting the GT350R one. And the steering wheel is holding up great! I love it!
Hey guys,
whats the best way to remove the paddle shifters without damaging anything?
You talking about the stock paddle shifters or the paddle shifter extensions? The stock ones just unscrew as shown around the 9:20 mark of the video. The extensions are easiest removed by using a heat gun to warm it up and then pry them off with a panel removal tool. You have to be careful using this method though, because the extensions are aluminum so they will get extremely hot. Wearing gloves is recommended.
where did you get it from, and in that color no paddle....my car is manual..
I bought mine off of eBay back when they were hard to find. But, now you can get one off of CJPonyParts.com and a few other places.
Do the paddle shifters work
Yeah, they work
ok thx
nice! finally got one huh?
+onelasttitan I've actually had mine for a while now. I just took it off and reinstalled it for this video.
really? didnt even notice in the videos lol
How do you like the auto transmission??
I love it!
is the shifting fast?
Mine is tuned, so it runs a bit differently than stock. But, there is no noticeable lag with the paddle shifters and even stock I enjoyed it.
Why not just buy the GT 350? 😀 👍
LOL!
