Carbon shift paddles M3 style from Ebay

I am wondering if any of you have purchased and tried any of the carbon fibre M3/4 shift paddles in Ebay . They are much cheaper and and at least in the photos they look exactly identical to the OEM ones.

Ebay example:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/155084849252

How were they as far as quality in concerned?

Read the item description. That's for paddles only, not full assembly.

I know, you are supposed to use the existing button-cable. No problem with that.

Great. I think I am ordering those.

PS:I just saw that you also have the wireless charger that I am thinking of ordering. How would you rate it? Is it holding the phone in place?

This is the third different one I’ve tried and yes, it’s outstanding. It fast charges and fits large phones like the iPhone 13 Pro Max and the Samsung S20/21/22 Ultra.

You can find the exact same item in Aliexpress also in case it is out of stock in Amazon.
