Conversion Kit 7x to convert Fanatec Steering Wheels to USB
New for 2025 is our latest version of the conversion kit for Fanatec wheels. This version of the kit offers several improvements on the previous 6.26x
- Height reduced from 59.5mm to 53mm.
- Can accept USB C and Micro B USB cables.
- USB plug now part of case to reduce strain on the main PCB and pin plug.
- No need to remove the bolts from the pin plug.
How does the 7x compare to previous kits?
The main aim was to reduce the height of the kit as much as possible while keeping it really easy to fit.
Convert your Fanatec steering wheel to USB so that it can be used with a different wheelbase.
Fanatec steering wheels will only work on a Fanatec wheelbase without modification. Our conversion kit allows these wheels to be used via USB.
The kit includes everything needed including a coiled USB cable and a selection of bolts. Simply remove the Fanatec Quick Release from your wheel and replace with the conversion kit. Then add a Quick Release of your choice or bolt it direct to a wheelbase.
We have designed every aspect of the conversion kit to provide a unique and high quality product for you.
Using our own custom made Printed Circuit Board the conversion will allow your PC to send and receive data from the Steering Wheel. This allows all of the steering wheel inputs to work (Including buttons, switches, joysticks, hat switches, rotary encoders, rotary switches, gear shifters and clutch paddles). You can control the wheel features using Fanatec drivers and software (including Displays*, LED's and Clutch bite point)
- No telemetry data is available on displays.
What does the kit work on?
Please look at the compatibility tab for a full list of compatible wheels. Basically the kit will work on all Fanatec wheels that have the removable QR. Only older wheels where you have to open the wheel to remove the QR are not supported and require the 5x Lite kit.
There can be exceptions to this where we have not been able to get a newer wheel to work, so do check the compatibility tab... for example we have yet to get the CSL GT7 Extreme wheel working yet.
Because the kit connects via USB it does not matter which wheelbase you want to use. It will work with anything. The only aspect you need to consider is how to physically attach the conversion to the wheelbase.
Our conversion kits only work on PC not console. They use Fanatec drivers and software.
You cannot use a converted wheel on a Fanatec wheelbase. If the Fanatec software sees two wheelbases (the conversion kit appears as a Fanatec wheelbase) then it cannot cope.
Supplied in the kit:
- High Quality anodised Aluminium case.
- USB input PCB attached to the case.
- Conversion PCB ready to push onto the wheel pin plug.
- USB C coiled cable.
- Pack of bolts.
Future proof:
As we continue to develop the conversion kits our desire is to be able to offer a wireless version that will not need a coiled USB cable. This is something we aspire to and it may not get there, but just in case there are a few additions to the 7x case to help with this.
You will see a plastic insert on the top. This is designed to allow a wireless signal to get out of the case. Aluminium blocks this signal, so having a small plastic insert should solve this.
Below the USB cable is a threaded hole in the case. This is to allow a wireless antenna to be fitted to the case should that be needed for improved wireless data transfer.
Fitting the kit:
Please go to the Instructions tab on the product for full details on how to fit and use the conversion kit.
In simple terms fitting the kit is as simple as:
- Remove your existing QR1 or QR2 from the wheel.
- Attach the coiled USB cable to the case using our clamp
- Bolt the Case to you wheel using the QR bolts removed above
- Attach the 4 pin cable to the conversion PCB
- Carefully push the conversion PCB onto the wheel pin plug.
- Attach your chosen QR
The 7x kit USB connection plug also allows attaching the Asetek QR system internally using our cable - supplied with the QR if purchased from us.
