How to build the Fanatec Podium Steering Wheel Porsche 911 GT3 R.

Once you have all the boxes and you are ready to build we recommend not opening them up all at once to prevent missing up screw bags etc.

We recommend starting with the Podium Advanced Paddle Module first.

Now take note here as this is important. The photos and the VIDEO show the paddle units fitted as you can see here.

If you look at the attachment screws you can see how they are all fitted on the same level.

This is perfect if you have an F1 style wheel but we are building the Porsche Steering Wheel.

If you look at the gold coloured circles as a reference and install the PLUS paddle as seen in the photo then the MINUS paddle shifter will be simple and you can guarantee you have this built correctly.

Note that the attachement screws for the large paddle are installed 180 degrees differently to the small paddle which matches the factory installed golden coloured paddle.

First thing we need to do is to remove the BLACK (GOLD highlighted in the instruction image) cover from them Podium Hub.

This will expose the circuit board connections required to link the paddles to the unit.
