A gear shift paddle 300 for requesting a gear shift of a vehicle (100; fig. 1). The gear shift paddle 300 comprises an opaque portion 40 including a light guide 50; and an illuminable portion 30 configured to receive light transmitted through the light guide 50 (e.g. from a light emitting diode LED 70) and emit the light for observation by a user of the vehicle. There may be a light obscuration region 60, e.g. acting as an indicator of gear shift direction by including a plus (+) or minus (-) symbol. The portion 30 may be lit up in a first colour (e.g. white) when the vehicle is in a first drive mode (e.g. normal, comfort mode driving), in a second colour when the vehicle is in a second drive mode (e.g. red for high performance mode; green for eco mode), and not be illuminated when the vehicle is in a third drive mode (e.g. automatic driving mode). The paddle may be part of a system (400; fig 4) comprising paddles 300 associated with the vehicle steering wheel 410.
