    Thanks Doncorleonez! Shall do:) I am actually having a play with my diy sequential shifter today so hopefully I'll upload a few pics later today. Because I'm building all from scratch it will take awhile to finish sim sled but I'm also working on motion platform at some time. Lol I actually spend more time building than driving but hey I wouldn't have it any other way.
