Paddle Shifters

I was curious if paddle shifters could be installed on the 8th gen like on the 370Z and G37. On my SL I took the trim off and found no mounting bracket or pre-wiring. I took apart my 7th gen that has the paddle shifters for comparison, and the bracket has additional extrusions for mounting - see photos. The SR must have a different column assembly that includes the bracket and a different wiring harness. It's a bummer since the actual parts are relatively inexpensive and it would have been a great modification. If anyone has any ideas, feel free to share.

Very Snarky that they did not include the paddle shifters for the Platinum. I miss them from my 2010
