Has anyone added a Steering wheel & pedels to their cab?

Sorry I don't know Dave or his interface?? Where can I read about what he's doing?

Neither do I. Is this going to be USB by any chance?

Yes I believe so...try searching for 'analog interace' or similar - there was a post here some time ago...haven't heard much since :(
Stingray: you could try using 100k pots, wire to a gameport plug and then get a gameport > USB convertor. I have one which seemed to work fine in Win98, a bit iffy in XP (kept loosing calibration). I couldn't say how well they work with MacOS but maybe worth a try...
Stingray:
Now that you mention it I think I have an old Gameport to ADB converter (this is an older Mac and it has an ADB -Apple Desktop Bus- port). Might see what I can do with that. Of course now that I think about it I'm pretty sure I've seen ADB pedals somewhere. Might have to do some eBay shopping.

I added a Pole Position wheel (360), Spy Hunter wheel (270), Star Wars yoke, Sega HangOn motorcycle steering assembly, two sets of gas/brake pedals (one set wired for single-axis and the other set for dual-axis) and 4 different types of shifters (4way, 3way, 2way return to center and 2way not return to center).

I hacked multiple MS Dual Strike USB gamepads to connect everything.
