£119.94
Convert your Fanatec wheels to USB
Description
Conversion kit to attach to your Wheelbase.
- Anodized aluminum case.
- Brand new PCB version 5.x with USB data protection and filtering.
- Coiled USB cable with choke for better interference protection.
- Full control of firmware, so I can develop this without relying on a third party
Build from the highest quality materials that are beautifully finished.
I have designed every part of the conversion kit personally. Everything is custom made either by me or for me.
Every kit is assembled by my hand in the UK
The Kit includes…
- Version 5.x SRM PCB
- Aluminum casing
- Fitted coiled USB cable
- JST PA Cable with Female QR pin Plug
- 6 x M5 45mm CAP bolts with black coating
- 6 x M5 washers
- 6 x M5 nyloc nuts
- Aluminum QR pin mount
- Steel QR plug washer
- 5 x M4 bolts
Fitting the conversion…
Fitting the conversion is easy. All the parts you need are included. You will need your own tools.
You MUST HAVE a Sim Racing Bay male QR otherwise you cannot use the kit
First attach the Female pin plug to the SRB QR using the supplied Aluminum back plate and supplied M4 bolts.
Next, attach the Pin plug cable to the kit PCB.
The kit must be bolted to the Wheelbase using a 70mm hole pattern. It does not matter if your wheelbase shaft hub is threaded on not, you can use the supplied bolts and nuts to attach it.
Attach the SRB QR in front of the kit and bolt both to your wheelbase.
The Coiled USB cable must go direct to your PC – The kit is not compatible with consoles.. You will need to use a USB extension cable, our DIN cable option or have a USB hub near the wheelbase.
No soldering, cutting or gluing needed, just removing a few bolts / screws.
The conversion is fully reversable if you keep the parts that you remove.
What wheelbase can I use?
The converted wheel can be used with any wheelbase / Direct Drive system. Because the kit plugs directly into your PC it is independent of the wheelbase.

I’m using this on my SC2 Pro with a BMW M4 GT3 wheel and a ClubSport Steering Wheel RS. I couldn’t be happier with it. I definitely recommend it to anyone.
