And that is why I like them. I don't like these paddles that circumvent half the steering wheel. You can get extensions for them, but not for me.

It was already nice there is just enough room between wheel and stalks to fit these. With longer downward extension, it would interfear with the cruise control stalk, since this one is closer towards the steering wheel.

Although I could remove it, since the steering wheel buttons now control all cruise functions.

Maybe I should do a journal topic, since the option list on this E36 is arguably the most extensive one.
