Sun visor monitor? Anyone have?

I was wondering if anyone has a LCD monitor in their sun visor? I was thinking about getting one for my G35, and hooking it up to a ps2 so I can play video games and watch dvds. I am looking for one that clips onto the current visor, because I don't want to cut anything in the car.

1. Does anyone know how much power this type of "modification" would waste?
2. Where does the wiring for the ps2 go? (I am thinking of getting the slim ps2s and putting it where the dvd player would go for the navigation player.)
3. Does anyone have any recommendations?

I have seen this modification on a few SUVs but have never seen it on a G35. Does anyone know what I am talking about? Comments, and suggestions would be very helpful as well.


Here's an idea of what I am talking about:

1. Power draw would be under 100 watts, mostly from the PS2.

2. You can power the ps2 off an inverter. Getting the wires up from the PS2 is going to be the difficult part. If I was going to do an install like this I would start by taking off all the panels from the glovebox to the sunvisor then route and secure the wires. The path you have to take should be pretty obvious once you get the panels off. There should be some existing wiring you can follow through any obstacles.

3. Theres a few posts on here of people who have installed PS2s. In the front the only good place I know of is putting it in the lower glove box and velcro it into place. It can't be put in the upper glove box since its not slot loading.
