@Spano already installed it in his civic 8th gen, maybe he can help or there are some ads on olx where they install paddle shifters and other items on demand like meter, climate control and shift knob.

Reached olx ads but they are demanding too much charges for installation + they are not disclosing ecu number. So I should buy it from them on the price they want.

Yours is a PKDM 8th gen? Paddle shifters wont work unless you swap out the transmission. The Pkdm prosmatic transmission does not support it. You will have to arrange CVT transmission (thai spec), complete wiring, ECU, Gear Shifter (its different from Pkdm, i.e. P R N D S L, instead of P R N D 3 2 1 ), RPM cluster with respective shift indicators, and then a sensible enough mechanic who can carry this out without totally destroying the car and this isnt exactly going to be cheap.
Good luck. Unless you are capable to do this all yourself, its much easier to just sell the car and get one which has it from factory.

Do you know which ECU supports paddle shifter? In which variant paddle shifter came on R18 engine?

The user above gave you all the information, for anything else, please research on Google. Please research for Thai spec trims.

I installed paddle shifters, cruise control and multimedia on my PKDM reborn non prosmatic

Following things will need to be changed:

• Meter Cluster with cruise, P R N D S and gear indicator
• ECU with capability
• Steering buttons
• Sparrow cable
• Paddle shifter knobs
• Gear bottom plate with P R N D S marking (optional)

It is not a very big task can be done in 2 hrs
Everything will work, but i dont know if paddle shifters are possible in manual transmission but in auto it is possible to do

It costed me 28k for whole package last year (it might be more now) and i kept my original meter, cables, and ECU to my self as well

Your car wiring are not going to be changed or anything.
There will be 1 or 2 extra wires which goes from ECU to steering through firewall wiring hole and thats it
Here is the phone number of the workshop from where i insalled it

Its not a rocket science and there is a thread on pakwheels forums that has guide to DIY as well

DIY: Project "Cruisematec", cruise control for PKDM Honda Civic Reborn 8th gen

AOA. Hope all good. Today ive started this long awaited n very much sorted after DIY which is more comprehensive than any thread/website available globally for the installation of Cruise Control in the 8th Gen Civic aka REBORN I can proudly say that Project ' CRUISEMATEC' was a total success. It took me over a year's research,endless hours of web browsing using my phone with GPRS as i had no DSL connection,family's n colleague's annoyance as i was always(n still) glued to the tiny screen of my…

You installed PRNDS gear shifter on pkdm prosmatic civic? What became of the 3 2 1 ratios? Or was the gearbox changed to cvt already?

[farhan_khan_h1]

AFAIK, It will be now controlled via paddle shifters. The conversion kit today works on the same Prosmatec transmission.

D1.....D3 will gets removed.
Its just from ECU, that controls these so in place of these I now get S and can shift the gear myself
The gearbox was never changed, its same as what came with the car
CVT is not needed for conversion
Also i want to mention that paddle shifter kit is not third party, it is pull out of USA civic 8th and works as genuine product
Only weak point in the system is the wires that goes from ECU to the steering.
