The Sabelt Fanatec Front Mount, listed in the Simufy catalogue as the Fanatec Side Mount, is the set of four 15 mm CNC aluminium plates that fixes Fanatec direct drive wheelbases to a Sabelt cockpit.
Fanatec direct drive units anchor through their sides, not underneath or through the front face, and use their own pattern. That is why Sabelt makes a dedicated set rather than reusing the DD Front Mount. There are four plates rather than two: spreading the motor torque across more anchor points stops the base working on two bolts and developing play with use.
Key features of the Fanatec Side Mount
- Four 15 mm CNC aluminium side plates, powder coated.
- Machined specifically for the Fanatec side pattern, with no adapters.
- Compatible with the whole direct drive range: CSL DD, Gran Turismo DD Pro, DD1 and DD2.
- Torque spread across four anchor points, so the fixing does not loosen over time.
- Compatible with the P, S and X series of Sabelt cockpits.
- 2-year manufacturer warranty.

Frequently asked questions
Which Fanatec wheelbases does it take?
Sabelt lists it as compatible with the whole Fanatec direct drive range: CSL DD, Gran Turismo DD Pro, DD1 and DD2.
Why four plates rather than two?
Fanatec direct drive units anchor through their sides. Four plates spread the motor torque across more fixing points, which stops the base working on just two anchors and developing play over time.
Is it the same as the DD Front Mount?
No. The DD Front Mount is machined for Simucube, VRS and Simagic and holds the base by its front face. This set uses four side plates with the Fanatec pattern. They are not interchangeable.
Does it fit a CSL Elite or a CSW 2.5?
No. Those units are not direct drive and bolt down through their base, so the accessory they need is the Wheel Deck, the 10 mm horizontal plate.
What is in the set?
It includes the aluminium plates, the fixing part and the screws. It does not include the aluminium profiles that join it to the chassis; on Sabelt cockpits those profiles are already part of the structure.
What warranty does it carry?
It carries a 2-year manufacturer warranty. Simufy is not only an official Sabelt distributor but also the only Official Fanatec out-of-warranty Repair Centre in Europe.
