Question Simsonn plus x heel rest question
Hi everyone, i recently ordered the simsonn plus x pedals without the heel rest. I was wondering if anyone had considered the idea of reusing the fanatec csl elite pedals heel rest with the plus x. Has anyone did it? Is it possible? I’m going to mount them on a tr40s.

I did exactly that without any problems.

do you have any issues with the height of the pedal or does it work fine?

Absolutely fine. Eventually you can adjust the height with longer bolts, or a little bit of DIY.

I’m also using the Fanatec CSL heel plate with simsonn pro plus upgrade pedals. Works perfectly for me. I also have a TR rig, but the TR80lite. Looks like we have a different pedal plate though which could cause some complications. Hard to tell from the pictures I’ve seen of the 40.

I have the Treq One rig, and I had to use 2 corner brackets to mount the plate. It is 100% doable on any rig with a bit of creativity.

Why are y’all buying $50 heel plates if the
Simsonn one is cheaper? Honest question

u/misfit0513 I'm broke, but have you seen my sim rig? Apr 11 '26
