Default 996 tiptronic wheel conversion for ferrari like pads?

Have any of you guys have seen tiptronic wheel conversion where actually changing gears accrued not by the button on staring Wheel but on pads behind steering Wheel like in Ferrari? Does such a product exist? I would appreciate any help.

Also is it possible to switch abs off? How can this be done?

I was hoping someone would answer. i can't see any reason why you couldhn't fabricate something, but I guess no one is aware of one commercially available. I would like to have the paddles or something similar to the paddles on the RX8 instead of the buttons. I sometimes get ahead of myself with those little buttons

I prefer the buttons since that allows one hand to up and down shift and steer. The paddles are alright but nothing worth wishing about. They are equally likely to be activated by accident. The only advantage is if you race with thick gloves. But then, who races with tip anyways?
