Sim displays like the Mclaren PCU-8D?

[Cloudini5]

Hi RD.
i was curious if there was an Sim display replica like the SLI-F1 wich is an replica of the PCU-6D but instead of the PCU-6D the New F1 Display PCU-8D.

ive already tried searching the forum before actually make this thread and came across someone who is making an Mercedes W05 Steering wheel replica and found that this Display was suggested : http://www.lcdinfo.com/products/usbd480-wq43.html

however as like the PCU8D the Rev lights and warning lights are not shown on Display but are surrounded arround the original Oled Display,
does anybody know if there is some company like Leo-bodnar for example who has plans of making such replica ?

looking out for the replies
Greetings

Is this for sale??

I think the Siminstruments Dash 2.0 will be very close to a ready-to-use PCU8D-like thingy with its vertical Flagge LEDs and the LCD screen.

If it ever goes on sale... They posted a video back in October last year showing a final prototype of the 2.0 version, but no updates have been made since then.

Ok too bad.... looking for a good display for a long time now....

They said to me that its display need about 2/3 weeks...it's near the end: it support 128 buttons or rotary and analogic input. 15 led for rpm, 6 led for other (like flags) and 6 more led. I only hope it will be slim!

Hi Jorg! No, this is a two years old Roso M1-F1 steering wheel , custom version. Only in this days I added by myself that 4.3" lcd screen and some new rotary and knobs

 

[Jorg van Bleis]

Really nice! to bad Roso is not making any wheel any more... I have an old roso wheel (not M but before) and works really great! Now I have an Rexing LCD wheel...

Im currently working on a 2015 Ferrari wheel, the only solution i can really find for replication of the McLaren display layout was to remove the LEDs from a Leo Bodnar sli-f1 and put them on 1.5 inch wires. Below is a quick test 3d print of the front panel with the LEDs inserted. (one of the electronics technicians at my work did the removal and remounting of the LED`s for me)

Hey James, What are the threaded inserts your using on your wheels ? The Brass ones.


PS awesome prints man, I have since picked up a printer myself i3 Mk2 and look at your work with envy, Keep it up man.

Hi Moxley
I bought them from the web site below, they are typically referred to as "heatfit inserts", you just place them in position and place a soldering iron on them and they sink into the plastic.

You can also buy smaller quantities from Ebay as well.
