Over the paddles - extensions. They snap on and are secured with a small set screw you tighten with a supplied allen wrench.

I know it says that it won’t scratch the original plastic paddles, but I see a metal-like piece that is pushed against the paddles when you screw on. Does it really not scratch the original paddles?

Also, I see your ACC stalk is not in on position. What if you have it pulled to on position, would it collide with the Leyo paddles? Thanks.

The ACC stalk always returns to it's original position. At least in the MY2019 S5 and RS5.

The ACC lever does have a off position, an on position and a temporary resume position that returns back to the on position when you let go.

If you push it forward a bit harder, you would be able to feel the click when it reaches its off position. You can see the printed words on the stalk too indicating the functions.

I don't see how it would scratch with the screw that sets in but I haven't taken. There's no way the paddles could hit anything. Here it is with the ACC engaged with a flash this time.

I tested my ACC stalk and it does always return to the middle position.

You are not pushing it hard enough towards the front of the car to the off position, once there it wont move.
