paddle shifter retrofit on 2011 RRS HSE

Can anyone give advise re paddle shifter fitting. Its been covered for 2010 RRS models i note but does anyone know if it is more straight forward plug and play installation for newer models. My mid 2011 HSE has a good option level but i am missing the paddle shifters and hoped I could get them retro fittted? Any idea of cost and this programming of the CCF business has me lost???? Why can't a land Rover dealer do it?

I can't think of any reason why it would be different to a 2010 RRS, as long as that is the MY'10 variant, as yours will be the MY'11 with very little difference - just a few extra things as standard.

Easy and very common...Tight D3/4 people Rolling with laughter Whistle Rolling with laughter are well known for doing it - have a look there.

I like the paddles and speced them on the 2011 when they werent standard...but then you have the gear stick so actually you could avoid them, i always didnt see the massive need (although i liked them)

You will need them turned on. Mike

They are a pain in the neck.

Much better to put the auto into Sports mode and let it do the work,

I am forever hitting them (particularly when low speed moving with a trailer) and then finding I am "stuck" in gear when pulling away until I over-ride them back into "D". 2016 RRS 4.4 TDV8 Autobiography Dynamic in Montalcino Red and Stealth Kit

Me, I like the paddles Cool ......Mrs Bean on the other hand Shocked
I had a call the other day telling me my car was "broken" and revving and wouldn't change gear. This didn't appear to be a concern to her as she was driving revving the cars nuts off and calling me Whistle Laughing
I explained the issue that she must have caught the paddle and told her how to override. Call was ended by the claim that they were rubbish Rolling with laughter.......women eh Exclamation Exclamation Shocked ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

Embarassed Thanks for the info folks, I have been away. Just got back on line...Why do I want them?.....French Alpes mountain hairpin driving in snow for 4 months of the year..simple sometimes you just want to change down or up in the bend....auto doesn't know when I want to change and its best to keep you hand on the wheel in these conditions.
