    I ordered the c20m button/paddle box and the QR1 from ascher racing in the end. They have good reviews so thought it easier to buy than to make the first one. If i had usually paddles i would of probably took my time and made one but i'm limited to cars on assetto so this was the easier option for now.

    You can get a Knock off 270 I believe on Aliexpress in the D shape. I was Working a deal with a factory but they refused to supply some accurate mesurments on a few of the wheels i was interested in, But one of them was 100% a Small D like imaged above. Check em out if you want to get one for 1/4 the price.
