Hiya mate... I've just bought myslef a playseat challenge after watching your reviews on it...I just wanted too say....just after setting it all up i found a super easy way of mounting a gearstick too the playseat.... Basically Ive hard mounted the wheel too the steel plate with the screws provided .... I then loosened the original clamps on the g29 wheel and placed a strip of wood there...roughly 2"x1" and about 50ish cm long... Clamped it up and then clamped gearstick onto the wood. Gunna paint it black an bobs your uncle.... Only downside is that it is as high as the wheel.... But super easy way too get the gearstick mounted none the less..... Cheers for all the top notch videos mate
I don’t know if you ever plan to add a usb handbrake but it would be interesting to see a mount video for that. Can’t really find any good ones online.
Great update Karl I’ve got the fanatec csl elite set up to go on my play seat challenge I’m going to get the fanatec shifter which you have on other rig , will the fanatec fit on the 35mm vesa top plate ? Thanks in advance Pete 👍
You've helped me out with your videos man thanks 😎. Before I get the mount & shifter for my playseat challenge. Are you able to place the mount on the right side of the chair instead of the left side without issues?
Hi Karl, I've been searching the web for vids or pics to see if this mount can also fit on the right side (where the opening/closing mechanism is). I can't find it anywhere. A simple yes or no would suffice. There are plenty of mods available for the shifter, but this one is the best I believe, since it's actually higher/closer to the steering wheel. Thanks!!
Good move, might be worth taking the wheel off the bracket first since it adds a ton of weight making the bracket a little unwieldy. Did you ever do a video on those two plastic bits that people use to secure the bracket from rocking up and down? I'd like to see what that's like since the only other video I saw on it was somewhat helpful but a second opinion would be good.
I didn't mate no, my Playseat doesn't seem to do it that I've noticed so it would be hard to review them if there's no problem to fix! lol Do you have a link and I'll look into it though?
@@KarlGosling Yeah man, the other vid I saw was here ( watch?v=q9XhXbh126k ) and he links the ones he bought but I think there's listings on amazon. Thanks for checking into it, looking forward to what you think. Bought the playseat based on your earlier vid btw and have been loving it, so thanks for the good content my dude!
That's great would love to see if this works the same with x rocker seat When u do next video would there be any chance of this please setup shifter to it
Thank you Karl for showing how to remove the front bar of the PlaySeat! Keep up the great videos!
Happy to help!

Anything can be made to fit, but you'll have to make it very very light for shifting or the mount will move.

No mate you cannot.
@@KarlGosling Glad I checked with you first. Thanks for the quick reply
