When I built my driving cabinet the most important thing to me when buying a racing seat was to make sure it could be adjusted between the legs so various sized players could adjust it to fit themselves accordingly.

Basically, I would recommend finding a seat which could be moved forwards/backwards

ok and what about hooking up a arcade monitor 2 a xbox or interfacing the xbox controls with the steering wheel?

bkenobi:
You can get the XBox to output VGA (http://www.xbox.com/en-US/hardware/x/xbox360vgahdcable/) which only helps if the arcade monitor can accept VGA inputs.  I doubt you would be able to hook it up easily without a monitor that accepts standard VGA.

The steering wheel on the XBox is a 270° wheel (meaning it's restricted and uses pots to determine the angle).  If the wheels on that cab also use a restricted wheel and pots then you should be able to hack an XBox wheel to use the existing hardware.  Search the forums to see if anyone has done it yet.  If so, you might already have a guide!

...Does he mean Xbox1 or Xbox 360?  Cause VGA for Xbox1 is a bigger pain in the ass.
