Steering wheel

[kazzar]

Does anyone know if it is possible to get a steering wheel for PC with blink and wiper arm, and maybe even a integrated dashboard in front of the wheel.

It seems like most steering wheels are made after race cars and the do not offer the right realism for simulators like ETS2, ATS and FS.

Agreed and would also like some suggestions...

I think the closest you will get is from the Logitech Heavy Equipment Bundle dashboard console, where you can use the joystick on it as indicators L&R with gear select up and down. As well as a selection of other buttons for you to assign.

could prop up a smaller tablet running sim dashboard to get you close enough to the integrated dash. i'd imagine what you are looking for would has a very small target audience, and if someone made it most wouldn't want to pay the price.

as addons, sure, quite expensive tho:

for dashboard just use http://www.stryder-it.de/simdashboard/, super cheap and one of the best additions aside from head tracking.

DIY .. Small project box mounted to side of wheel housing, add an on-off-on SPDT momentary toggle switch, add a big-rig switch handle extension and a USB game-pad board .. BOOM! Turn signal switch.

Edit: I have mine wired thru a phone cord extension, and a phone jack in my DIY Button-Box so it uses my Button Box USB Boards additional functions, but I can also unplug it to store my sim rig.

Can't believe I've been playing these truck simulators and never noticed these were actually a thing. The dashboard add-ons a re a bit too expensive to justify, but the truck shifter knob with splitter and range switches is a must.

Thanks for the tip on these accessories. I got myself the shifter knob.

You paid 120 for a 25 knob and 5 in switches ... DIY everything.

Eh... don't have the time or the energy to DIY stuff, unfortunately. Too much work and other hobbies. I see it as a "convenience" fee

Great didnt know the made the blinker arms now i know they are there but yeah is't a bit expensive.
I guess if i want the 100% realistic feeling ill just have to go find a real dash for a truck and fit for pc use :D

or that, if you have the time/skills a DIY will be cheaper and realistic if you can find the parts.

Have seen some custom made sets that blow your mind, and using Arduino will let you do as you like it

Take a look at Jeff Favignano's YT channel and his ATS videos. He usually has a wheel cam, and his setup looks awesome. The video descriptions have links to the kit he uses. Must say it looks expensive stuff though...
