As a heads-up, this probably won't work the way you want it to. All of the Playstation joysticks I have taken apart have 10K pots on the analog controls. The IFI OI requires 100K. If you use 10K it will not work the way you want it to. You'll end up with an extremely limited range of values coming out of your joysticks.
