Theoretically, you can convert any controller to work on any console with the right encoder chip. I don't have the specs in front of me, but if I had to guess I would say that steering wheels operate by isolating the L/R pot from the left analog stick and using it exclusively for input.

The trick with steering wheels is that on most consoles, they identify themselves to the machine as a different controller type. I don't know that this is possible without a donor chip from a real 360 steering wheel or a PIC reader/programmer combo. Please note that on the whole, programming is off topic for GamesX.
