Re: Mini PS2 installed in Glove Box

Ah, from the earlier post I thought he meant to fit controller extension cables in there and then run them somewher where there was more room to plug in the reciever. I guess the reciever doesn't take up much more room then controller extension cables themselves.

Re: Mini PS2 installed in Glove Box

actually that might work... b/c the wireless controller reciever hangs down (designed for a regular PS2)... i need to work on a way to make the extension cable fit and then put the reciever in another part of the dash like you said

1) Chop chop, tap to the cigarette lighter~ This just might work. ; )

2) There are a couple of mod chips for the PS2 Slim (V.12) already.

3) Controller port and the memory card slot contributes a bulk chunk in the PS2 Slim. Remove the silver controller box and we might be able to solder an RF wireless adaptor to the motherboard. I think you might be able to mount an wireless receiver there.

4) Generator, are those PS2 splice cables ready yet? Looks like everything else has fallen into place.

PS2 Slim + Generator Lab chip = DVD, MP3, PS2 games in G35. woot! Total cost = $300. wow~

Re: Mini PS2 installed in Glove Box

The first PS2 cable, called NavStation, is currently on its way to me now. I'm the guinea pig. I'll let Generator and you guys know how it'll go.

Re: Mini PS2 installed in Glove Box

I'm getting the PS2 cable from Generator this Wed and am in the process of gathering everything I need for the install. For power for the PS2, since it takes in 8.5V DC, I plan on getting a 12V-to-9V adapter. That way, I wouldn't have to find somewhere to stick that bulky laptop-like AC/DC adapter. Can anyone tell me where to tap in for power? I heard I might get noise tapping into the cigarette lighter. Is there anywhere else? If that's my only option, I saw a MonsterCable 12V to 9V adapter with "noise filtering" at Best Buy last weekend. Would that work just as well as having a radioshack adapter alone with an inline noise filter in series?
Thanks ahead

Re: Mini PS2 installed in Glove Box

I don't think you'll have a problem with noise tapping in at the cigarette lighter, particularly if your not using an inverter and going DC-DC. In my experience, monster cable, looks better, cost about 10x more, but performs no better then most of the generic stuff you get off the internet. I draw about 10 watts from the cigarette lighter for my VGA screen and it hasn't caused any noise issues.
