make this into usb

So i just bought an logitech Driving force Shifter, and want to make a standalone version, cause i dont have the wheel for it, and i figured they use SUBD9 Connector, well only one, and i hoped to get some help from anyone, that could help me make this happen to become a usb connector?

i have an arduino i could use to convert the SUBD to the usb through arduino

i watched this guy here but still yet i didnt get much out of it..

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Good luck! You'll need it. Not only will you have to adapt the connector, but you will have change the firmware to accept this new interface.

You are correct. Logitech says that the shifter connector is a DB-9 Male.

So maybe this will work?

Nothing but a new usb controller will work , the shifter is only a axis with the mechanism, nothing else , no board, no chips, you need a Arduino to map the axis coordinates into buttons in order to work
