Fanatec Clubsport shifter mount

[deandsfsdfewsad]

Looking to buy a mounting solution for my Fanatec shifter and I cannot decided which is better, the more expensive version from Sim Lab:

This allows me to tilt the shift (althought I don't know how useful this will be?) Or a cheaper alternative:

The cheaper alternative mounts from the base but costs £20.00 less so I don't know which to go for...

I would think the tilt would be very useful.

my own 8020 design, i can accommodate both quite easily, the design is similar to a P1-X/ GT1

I'd go for the SIM Lab version. It's worth the extra money for the tilt adjustment, plus it can be reoriented 90 degrees. Once you sit in your seat, you'll be surprised just how much you'll yourself reaching out to the gearshifter (and other peripherals) and wanting to move it ever so slightly to get the right feel just right.

Sorry, I forgot about your other "8020 posting". I think you might want to evaluate the side-rail mounting (where you going to mount the shifter) and switch the back vertical member to attach to the end of the horizontal member to allow for height adjustment of shifter. Unless your design length for the vertical height is exactly what you want, you might find that whatever seat you impacts this location.

yeah I think I made my mind up on this one, I'll stick with the sim lab mount
