Xbox steering wheel (which one to buy)?
unclet:
I figure I will just use some straps to hold it in place on the cabinet. This way it will be detachable for use on another system or TV in the future.
eightbit:
You could use velcro. If you use a big enough peice of it, you'll be surprised how well it will hold and how hard it is to get it off. There are also different grades of velcro with some having better gripping power and less spongy movement.
unclet:
I like that idea .... probably will go with velcro

Okay, sorry again for being slow to reply.
That's the wheel I have. Appears to be the following brand and model: Pelican Cobra TT Racing Wheel X-Box
I received it as a gift and honestly I think it's a bit sloppy. The steering response does not kick in until you are about 1/4 turn and then it is way too touchy. Makes it difficult to run rally cross or similar games. The pedals leave a bit to be desired as well. They suffer from the same problem as the wheel in that you have to press about half way before they register and then they are too sensitive.
I don't recomend this wheel.

I too have bought the Universal Madcatz and it is great - best wheel for xbox - thoroughly recommend it. The on-wheel sensitivity adjustment is fantastic.
The only minuses for me are:
1. No force feedback
2. They are a bit on the ugly side IMHO and
3. They are made from cheap plastic.
I am thinking of hacking the guts of this wheel and interfacing it with some higher quality components similar to this project:

Anybody have any further thoughts / comments on this ?
