    4 springs from 5cm
    2 microswitch
    8 extensions for threaded rods M8
    a lever recovered from 30cm
    a knob Sparco

    here are some pictures is a video of the operation is unfortunately the only video I




    not to add external devices, I connected the wires to the sequential gearbox g27

    looks really nice! :)
    Could you please describe the mecanism: what part is articulated or fixed?
    I would be great if you could draw a simple sketch!

    I ask my friend if I billo creates a 3D drawing and then share it here, because I'm not good with the drawings.:(



    @zigzag49 is a pleasure, thanks for the positive comment :thumbs

    I soldered my sequential shifter to the G27 paddles, too. It is a bit of work but it is absolutely worth it.

    Hello. I have a problem with the gear shift. I have a fly speed. I want to connect my Sequential gearbox to the steering wheel G 27. Do you think it will help me? Sorry for my English

    Yes you could, I remember seeing a document ages ago. I think it was a matter of opening the G27 shifter and re-soldering wires off 2 switch points and then solder them to your switches in your sequential shifter
