Have a set of these and just wondering if they would be pnp with the new wheel base? Would be a shame to forced to get some new ones as they are in excellent condition.

Hi Dave,
The ClubSport Pedals V1 will work fine on the CSL DD, as long as you have a PS/2 to RJ12 cable.

Cheers. Already pre-ordered the DD so can spend the cash saved on other goodies :D
Erm... that's a bit misleading I think, is it not? The Clubsport v1 pedals use a PS/2 connection, and the CSL DD requires an RJ-12 connection. I have an email from a Tim from the Fanatec Webshop stating as such when I asked him the very same question regarding my own Clubsport v1 pedals:
"The CSL DD wheel base only has a RJ12 connection so you will need a adapter cable where you can connect the pedals with the wheel base.
Unfortunately we are not able to sell you this kind of cable."
So, yes they will work, but unless you can source a PS/2 to RJ-12 adapter from somewhere (I'd suggest ebay where I found mine, or Amazon or maybe a local computer repair shop could custom make you one), you may find yourself SOL as such adapters don't appear to be terribly common, in my experience.
Might have a look here for reference:

Unless OP is using his kit on PC, in which case he could just plug everything in via separate USB connections and be good to go. But he questioned whether the pedals are "plug n play" with the CSL DD, which led me to assume he wants to plug the pedals into the wheelbase, as is required on consoles.
Hi Gregg, you're quite right, I've edited my response. This is the cable: https://fanatec.com/eu-en/accessories/pedal-accessories/sp-pedals/shifter-cable-2.0m-ps/2-rj12
I think support responded in this way because this cable is not currently available from the US website.
Sorry, I didn't mean to look like a jerk for trying to call you out, I just didn't want OP or anyone else to think they were all set, and then realize they're not able to use their kit due to a missing cable.
Thanks very much for the link to that cable. Are you able to say if this is something you anticipate coming back in stock in the US store at some point in the future?
The pedals I have came with a couple of connection cables. Almost positive one is ps2-rj45, thicker than the one linked with a blue tab on the end. Will double check when I get home.
This is the fella
The one I wound up purchasing from ebay is quite short (only maybe 18 inches or so), and has a female PS/2 connector with the RJ12 connector at the other end.
Hopefully that will work ok and I can just tack that on to the end of my existing cable which is male PS/2 on both ends.
Otherwise maybe (hopefully) Fanatec will get more stock of the male PS/2 to RJ12 cables in a 6ft/2m length like they're currently showing on their EU site.
