Aluminum Button Color KitvsDuct for SRS Hurricane Wind Kit

The Bottom Line

Choosing between the Aluminum Button Color Kit and the Duct for SRS Hurricane Wind Kit comes down to whether you want to refine your hands-on wheel ergonomics or direct your rig's physical airflow. One is a premium cosmetic and tactile upgrade for a specific wheel ecosystem, while the other is a functional utility add-on for wind simulation.

Note

The Asetek kit is locked to Asetek SimSports steering wheels, whereas the SRS duct is a universal ecosystem accessory but requires specific SRS Hurricane hardware to function.

Why choose Aluminum Button Color Kit

7.5
Overall Score
  • It replaces standard plastic caps with premium aluminum, significantly improving tactile feel and grip.
  • It allows you to fully customize and "de-orange" your Asetek steering wheel.

Why choose Duct for SRS Hurricane Wind Kit

7.0
Overall Score
  • The tool-free, GoPro-style 360-degree swivel adapter makes adjusting wind direction incredibly easy on motion rigs.
  • It offers a dedicated routing solution for your wind simulation setup at a lower entry price of $40.00.

The Verdict

If you own an Asetek wheel and want a premium tactile upgrade, the Aluminum Button Color Kit delivers excellent build quality, though VR users may find the $89.00 price tag steep for a mostly cosmetic change that lacks matching thumb rotaries. Meanwhile, the Duct for SRS Hurricane Wind Kit is a solid utility for motion rigs, but you must tolerate reduced wind velocity, extra whistling noise, and a bulky footprint in your cockpit.
