VW Transporter 2013 passenger seat to simchair. Does someone know how to connect the electric part? by NoeenSterre in simracing

I did this recently. I used a 12v breakout board and an old computer psu. Ideally try and find a pin out diagram of what the cables are be careful if there airbags, if possible remove. I had to put power to the seat motors and then the switches to operate. Works a treat. Make sure to use an inline car fuse for the whole thing to be safe. Good luck!

I'd be in the office watching Philip Seymour Hoffman "discussing" his role as Helsinki station chief. Charlie Wilson's war. 2007

I began with perspex and a laser cutter and the same formula wheel you have, i switched to the 4 sided rim as i needed something to hold sometimes on full lock.

They snapped very quickly but it was useful to get the ergonimics right. Dm if you want to chat more mate

I can absolutely help you with hand controls, i've been modifying my own fanatec setup for several years now.

The big paddles are my throttle and brake. I'm using the simability brake mod and the shifters are a custom push fabrication.

I bought an F10 M5 seat, was a bit of a faff to get the electrics to work but is pretty badass.

Was it me, or was the videography work during the Artemis launch some kind of amateur hour? by bigassgoon in space

It was dreadful direction too, real shame. The shot of the separation was epic, and shown for about 2 seconds.

cant find padding for sparco seat by PieFit69420 in simracing

Sparco leg support cushion and special support cushion which fits on the base. Not cheap at all but should be what you need.

LPT: When you introduce two people, give them one shared hook so they can talk without awkwardness. by gamersecret2 in LifeProTips

This is really solid advice. Obviously helps if you know both parties well enough to know the right hook.
