Quick answer
The Interlock LED Matrix is a simple, wire-free way to add a telemetry display to any Interlock-compatible wheel rim with a 55mm horn hole. It connects via pogo pins and shows customizable data like RPM, flags, or lap times at a glance.
What the Interlock LED Matrix does
The Interlock LED Matrix is an easy upgrade for any Interlock setup. It connects directly through pogo pins and fits any compatible rim with a 55mm horn hole. No wires, no hassle — just crisp, customizable data at a glance.
This display shows real-time telemetry such as engine RPM, shift lights, flag status, and lap times. You can configure what data appears through the GSI software, tailoring it to your driving style or sim title.
Compatibility and fit
The LED Matrix works with any Interlock-compatible rim that has a 55mm horn hole. This includes the Interlock Base Module + Rim and the Interlock Ultra, though the Ultra already has the matrix built in. If you own a standard Interlock rim, you can add the matrix as a separate module.
Interlock Ultra
Check your rim's horn hole diameter before purchasing. If your rim does not have a 55mm horn hole, the LED Matrix will not mount directly. In that case, consider a rim upgrade or the Interlock Ultra for an integrated solution.
Trade-offs: add-on vs. integrated
The add-on LED Matrix is a cost-effective way to add telemetry without buying a new wheel. It costs USD 56.95 and installs in seconds. The downside is that it sits as a separate module, which may feel less seamless than a built-in display.
The Interlock Ultra integrates the LED Matrix into the rim design for a cleaner look and one-piece feel. However, it costs more upfront and you cannot remove the display if you prefer a simpler rim. Choose based on whether you value modularity or an all-in-one aesthetic.
Decision rules for adding the LED Matrix
- Check your rim's horn hole: Measure the center hole diameter. The LED Matrix requires a 55mm horn hole. If your rim does not have it, the matrix will not fit without an adapter. If your rim lacks a 55mm hole, consider a compatible rim or the Interlock Ultra.
- Decide between add-on and integrated: The add-on matrix (USD 56.95) is cheaper and modular. The Interlock Ultra has the matrix built in for a cleaner look but costs more and cannot be separated. Choose add-on for budget and flexibility; choose Ultra for an all-in-one design.
- Plan for future upgrades: The Interlock system is modular. You can start with a base rim and add the matrix, paddle shifters, or clutches later. This avoids buying a whole new wheel when you want telemetry. If you plan to expand over time, the add-on matrix fits that roadmap perfectly.
Product facts
- Interlock LED Matrix: The Interlock LED Matrix is an easy upgrade for any Interlock setup. It connects directly through pogo pins and fits any compatible rim with a 55mm horn hole. No wires, no hassle — just crisp, customizable data at a glance. You can add telemetry to your existing wheel without soldering or routing cables, making it a practical first step into sim racing dashboards.
- Interlock Base Module + Rim / Prime + Simucube 2 Pro Bundle: The Interlock Base Module + Rim is the most straightforward way to start with Interlock. You’ll get the modular core paired with a GSI rim, with the option to add paddle shifters, clutches, or the LED Matrix. Every piece is designed to work together, so your setup can grow over time. If you are building a new rig from scratch, this bundle gives you a solid foundation that accepts the LED Matrix later, so you are not locked into a single configuration.
Who should buy the Interlock LED Matrix?
Best for
- Sim racers who already own an Interlock-compatible rim with a 55mm horn hole
- Drivers who want a low-cost telemetry upgrade without replacing their wheel
Not ideal for
- Racers who prefer an integrated display built into the rim (consider the Interlock Ultra)
- Anyone whose rim does not have a 55mm horn hole and does not want to change rims
