WTB Paddle Shifters/ Steering Wheel TX

I drive a Mazda3, its an Auto 0_0
Anywho I know it's a long shot, but does anyone have a steering wheel for sale that has the paddle shifters?
Or just wants to sell the shifters/springs ect..
LET ME KNOW!
Since I have a auto, I though I might make it a little funner!
Thank you,
Jason

I have one, $45 shipped - it is the RX-8 steering wheel with the paddle shifters, but no airbag center, just the wheel with the buttons etc...

Yes it bolts right up, BUT you have to wire the paddles to the manumatic part on the shifter.
Not hard just take time.

Got one Thanx chamberlin!

I still have it, I tried I really did.
I did a custom fab with custom brackets and I found a different clockspring.
But it just wont fit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The way the steering wheel sits is way to shallow for the peddles to fit.
You would have to shave down the frame of the streering wheel somehow.
