I'm back on track with a makeshift conversion of my G27 shifter to a self-centering sequential shifter with a rubber bands looped around the shifter boot ring @ 0 and 180 degrees with each pulling on the shifter.
I disassembled my Logi G27 shifter to see how it works which involved some cursing when it sprang apart, ejected the detent ball and unhooked the expansion spring that holds the bottom halves together and even more bleep-worthy words putting the mousetrap back together.
I could have fabricated internal plates or an external one to keep the shifter in the 3-4 slot but happily the solution to center the shifter between 3 and 4 also keeps it in the 3-4 slot.
My shifter boot was already tattered so removing it and its plastic spacer to make my version of the rubber band mod work wasn't a loss. I could have simply cut the boot spacer off but how to remove the shift knob wasn't obvious to me (maybe a nut under the shift pattern insert?) so I removed the shift lever.
It's going to take some getting used to but it seems like it's going to get me by until the new equipment that I want is readily available. The H shifter has been used less than any of my controls so it should further from end of life.
