as far as i know, i was the first to install a slim PS2 into my lower glove box. however, i ended up removing it b/c i couldn't close the glovebox with the controllers plugged in (even wireless ones)..... have you found a way to get around this problem? or do you just leave the glovebox down when playing?

kudos on the install... very clean, i like it alot.


here's what mine looked like

Nice, thats what I wanted to see! Now you need some wireless controllers and you are set! Any pics of where your inverter/power block for the PStwo are?

maybe you could just dremel out some slots for the wireless controller receievers to protrude into?

ORRR maybe you could take the top off the slim ps2 so that you can put it in the upper cubby hole (if you have no nav). I know it is top loaded so disc would be exposed but would probably fit nicely.

awesome. Great setup. I mounted my ps2 slim the same way. Its a pain though if the wires get lose in the back. Hasnt happened to me but im getting ready for the day. I dont know if there is a wireless remote that will work with the glove box closed. Is there a company that makes a wireless remote which will plug right into the plug without being longer then the ps2?
