Here is my review of the Bodin Solutions BPA-TX-G27 pedal adaptor I recently invested in. They can be found on his website here: http://www.bodin-solutions.com/BPA-TX-G27_Pedal_Adapter/p1644578_11531457.aspx
I have the Thrustmaster T300GTE, I had recently upgraded from a G27. As most users have found the T300 standard pedals leave a little to be desired, especially after getting my G27 pedals back out of the box to try this adaptor, it really highlighted how weak the T300 brake pedal is.
The BPA-TX-G27 was packaged securely and arrived to me in Australia 2-3 weeks from order. There are no instructions but if you need instructions for some thing this simple, you probably shouldn't be playing with Sim gear and computers.
Simple it is, just plug the BPA-TX-G27 into your Thrustmaster T300 (TX/T500 as well I believe) and then dust off your old faithful G27 pedals and plug into John's adaptor.
It worked straight up with no issues, I struggled to see any difference in steps of resolution between the pedals on the Thrustmaster control panel(The G27 pedals have less resolution than the stock T300 pedals), all 3 pedals registered in the Thrustmaster control panel and all 3 pedals registered smoothly with actuation.
I did do some racing with it and felt a great familiarity going back to my trusty G27 pedals, I am currently working on getting them hard mount installed back in my rig as I am that impressed with the product.
Pros:
Dead easy to use
Great to keep as a back up tool with some G27s if you already have T3PA/T3PA-PROs etc...
Cost, minimal, you get to upcycle existing gear you have all for around $30, especially if you have a set of heavily modified G27 pedals.
Looks good, very simple, black and grey colours to help hide it in with all your other black and grey gear.
Cons:
The cable supplied could have been a bit longer, so I could hide the adaptor body with my other cabling, maybe have an option of say a 12" (300mm) version as a chargeable extra. But this is only a wish I have as I am a bit pedantic when it comes to cables.
Overall I am very happy with my investment and this has opened up some more possibilities for an otherwise boring basic pedal set with my T300.
If you have any questions please feel free to ask below.
