I know that Obi-Wan at some point had plans to 'invent' a pedal shifter for the steering wheel similar to the picture ............. does ANYONE know if this has ever been accomplished ?

I would LOVE to have that .............. :biggrin:

Cris,

the 'prototypes' ObiWan had made up where MUCh smaller and Chrome (or Metal) rings ........ I just tried to find a picture to explain what I was talking about ;-)

Shouldn't be too hard... got to figure which wires to tap in the AutoStick.... I looked at making a paddle shift kit for my kat, but Obi Wan never answered any of my questions as to which wires to tap...

I have never dealt with the guy, but I personally would be hesitant to order anything from him. I noticed that he is hard to reach sometimes and the whole "Star Wars" routine just seems a little wierd. He does have some good ideas though...

JUST MY PERSONAL OPINION

Getting stuff he has on the shelf I don't think is to much of a problem. Anything he has to make is an exersize in futility.... doesn't return calls, doesn't answer the phone.....don't go there, I would only buy from him if he sent it C.O.D.

Yea I'd sure hope they'd be smaller. Those are from a gaming wheel! Big frigging paddles, too.
