The Immersion Gap Every Trucker Faces
You've logged hundreds of hours in Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator. Your wheel and pedals are dialed in. But something's missing—the authentic truck cockpit experience.
Without proper truck controls, you're stuck with:
- ❌ Using keyboard shortcuts mid-drive (breaking immersion)
- ❌ Racing-style gear shifters that feel nothing like a real truck
- ❌ No tactile feedback for turn signals, wipers, or cruise control
- ❌ Missing that "real trucker" feeling
We've built the complete solution the truck sim community has been demanding.
Why Authentic Controls Matter
What the Community Says
The truck simulator community consistently emphasizes these critical needs:
Immersion Over Everything: Physical switches and stalks create muscle memory that mirrors real truck driving. You stop thinking about controls and start feeling like you're behind the wheel of a real Peterbilt or Scania. The difference between pressing a keyboard key and flicking a physical turn signal stalk is the difference between playing a game and experiencing truck driving.
Tactile Feedback Is Everything: Touch-sensitive tablets and keyboard shortcuts break immersion instantly. Real switches with physical feedback let you adjust controls without looking away from the road—just like a real truck driver. When you can feel the click of your turn signal or the resistance of your shifter, your brain processes it as real driving.
Complete Control Layout: True immersion means every function has its dedicated control. Turn signals on stalks where they belong, headlights on rotary switches, cruise control buttons exactly where your thumb expects them. This isn't about convenience—it's about authenticity.

Product Highlights
Control Stalks
The heart of authentic truck driving.
Left stalk handles turn signals with that satisfying tactile click—left, right, and hazards. Right stalk controls wipers with multiple speed settings. Integrated cruise control buttons sit exactly where your thumb expects them. This is the single most impactful upgrade for immersion. Stop reaching for keyboard keys in the middle of highway driving.
Why it matters: Turn signals and wipers are the most-used controls in trucking. Having them on proper stalks—not keyboard keys—transforms how you drive. Real truck drivers signal by muscle memory. Now you can too.
Control Panel
Your central command hub.
Seven automotive-grade physical switches in a premium CNC-machined aluminum housing. Each switch provides satisfying tactile feedback for critical truck functions—differential locks, trailer controls, engine start, hazards, and more. Compact horizontal design mounts easily under monitors or on wheel decks.
Real Switches, Real Feel: These aren't membrane buttons or touch sensors. Each switch has proper travel and feedback. You can operate them by feel without looking, just like in a real truck cab.
Headlight Switch
Proper lighting control.
Rotary dial operation with four positions: Off → Parking lights → Low beam → High beam. Tactile detents let you change lighting modes by feel. Premium metal construction ensures years of reliable operation. This is how real trucks control lighting—not with toggle buttons.
Window/Mirror Switch
Control your environment naturally.
Dual rocker switches for window up/down and mirror adjustments. Small detail, huge impact on immersion. Rolling down your window for toll booths or adjusting mirrors before pulling out adds surprising realism to your drives.
Hand Brake Valve
Authentic parking brake operation.
Truck parking brakes aren't levers—they're valves. Push to engage, pull to release. This authentic design with optional leather-covered grip delivers that satisfying mechanical action real truckers know. Complete with the distinctive air release sound in-game.
Dashboard
Digital instrumentation done right.
Full-color display with customizable gauge layouts showing speed, RPM, fuel, temperature, air pressure, and more. Integrated navigation display with turn-by-turn directions. Blue LED backlighting creates authentic truck instrument cluster aesthetics. Mounts above your wheel for perfect sightline.
Real-Time Telemetry: Pulls live data directly from ETS2/ATS, displaying everything your truck's doing in real time. Works with all trucks and mods.
Trucksim Shifter Knobs
Personalize your shifting experience.
Two authentic styles: MAN with blue accent or SCANIA with red accent. These aren't generic round balls—they're shaped and weighted like real truck shifter knobs. Small detail that completes the authentic feel when your hand grips the shifter.

Why Trucksim Components Stand Out
Designed BY Truckers FOR Truckers
Unlike repurposed racing hardware, every Trucksim component is purpose-built for truck simulation:
Authentic Positioning: Control stalks mount exactly where they belong in a truck cab—not adapted from racing wheel positions.
Proper Resistance & Feel: The shifter feels like moving a truck transmission—not a race car sequential. Switches click like automotive switches—not gaming peripheral buttons.
Complete Integration: All components are designed as a unified system. They work together to replicate a complete truck cockpit, not a collection of random buttons.
True-to-Life Operations: Every switch, valve, and control mirrors real truck cab design and operation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I need all components to start?
A: No! Start with Control Stalks and build from there. Each component works independently and adds to the experience. Most users start with stalks and shifter, then expand over time.
Q: Will this work with my existing wheel and pedals?
A: Absolutely. These are separate USB controllers that work alongside any wheel/pedal setup from any manufacturer.
Q: Can I use this for other driving games?
A: Yes! While optimized for truck sims, these controllers work with any game that supports standard USB input devices.
Q: How do I mount everything?
A: We have specific mounting bracket for major brand wheelbase like Simagic (Alpha / Alpha Mini / Alpha U / Alpha EVO), Moza (R3 / R5 / R9 / R12 / R16 / R21), Fanatec (CSL DD / GT DD Pro / DD1 / DD2/ ClubSports DD/ DD+), Simucube 2 (Sport / Pro / Ultimate), Thrustmaster (T300 / T-GT / T-GT II / TS-PC / T598/ T818)
Q: Does the dashboard work with mods?
A: Yes! It pulls telemetry data directly from the game engine, so it works with all trucks, mods, and custom content.
