Has proprietary connector, thus requires 3rd-party converter when used with the wheels outside of Logitech wheels.

Logitech G Pro Racing Pedals

High-end simulation racing pedals with 3 pedals.
The pedals are adjustable horizontally.
The clutch and accel pedals use hall-effect sensor for more accurate positioning detection and long-lasting use compare to potentiometer-based pedals.
The adjustable rubber-loaded, loadcell brake pedal can supports up to 100kg of loads. User can swap out the rubber pieces to adjust the resistance according to user preference.
Requires the Logitech G Racing Adapter (See below) to be used on G29 and G920.

Adapters

Multi-use adapter that allows cross-generation compatibility with various generation of Logitech's sim racing products.
Allows G29 and G920 to use the Logitech G Pro Racing Pedals, with an additional dial to adjust the braking force.
Allows a PC to use the G29 and G920's pedals and G Driving Force Shifter on their own by connecting the adapter directly to the PC via USB, but GHub software is required.

Support in games

Games that incorporate Logitech's Steering Wheel SDK can support the wheel, while also provide force feedback.
Selected games has native support for the rev indicator LED on the G29. It is possible for non-supported games to provide rev indicator LED support by using 3rd-party wrappers such as Fanaleds.
