well im gonna put the PS2 in the lightning on thursday, where should i mount it? im eventually gonna get the same set up as VINNIE, but i dont have the Subs yet, i will get them in a month or two, and then i will mount it like Vinnie, but for now where should i mount it? in the back middle? (i allready did away with the storage bin back there) i dont want to mount in the front center i have the 6-disc mounted there, and i put my CD case there. where else could it go? or should i stick with the back wall in the middle, and when i get the sub box by MTX then just re mount the ps2 over the box?

 

I bet you could fit the PS2 under the passenger seat. and if not I would just mount it vertical in that back but that rear storage box is going to have to come out.

 

ummmm..... i put in my post that, i allready removed that....

just messin

thanks, but you think i would be good under the passenger? i have the remote for DVD's...... i was thinking in the back for the controler thing, but the passenger seat does sound good, maybe it'll be hard to show off at car shows and stuff, but all they have to do is look at the screen.....

thanks. anyone else?

 

well with the remote, take the IR sensor out of the PS2 and then add wires to extend it and mount that up on your dash somewhere. that would be trick.

 

ok, im clueless now

i got the remote that is not PS brand it's something else, and you plug something into where the controller goes, and thats the sensor i think...... so i could just extend that maybe? or i could just use the controller no big deal

thanks, you the man with those posts, keep going, you only need 3000 to get to #1

EDIT: and also where do you suppose i mount/route the power inverter to plug in at?

 

Here's where I put mine.

 

the ps2 i have and can mount in the back next to or on my side like the cd changer, my question is about a tv screen what are our options on that?
thanks, Shane

 

any in-dash will work. but the cheaper ones don't come with a cd player you'll have to get a 6-disc or whatever.

Alpine CVA's are good
Sony makes an ok one (not as good as alpine but bigger picture)
Clarion
Kenwood

anyone is pretty good and will work. look around.

Lightning, you have your PS2 mounted above your storage bin, if i mount mine there im gonna mount the top of the ps2 where your bracket starts. it will look more custom that way. but im seriously thinking of what RTKILLA told me, and just mount it under the seat.

 

well, i ended up moutning it in the back against the wall, i tryed to see if it fit under any of the seats, but it doesn't, it kinda does, but there is no way you could open it to put in cd's. anyway im getting that done as we speak, and im having them hot wire the power inverter to the battery, so i dont have the annoying cord showing plugged into the lighter. and i'll probably have that mounted under a seat with the switch showing to turn it on and off.

 

if you want to be able to show it off why don't you just mount it to the hood in a plexiglass box

 

very funny. i was thinking right on the grille. no really though im about to go pick it up soon, god i hope they mounted it right, the guy wrote it on paper (after i physically showed him) where i want it, so they better hook it up. but all it cost was $40

 

fabricate somthnig so it can go in the place you put the owners manual under the pass airbag. Hope you know hat i'm talking about. It would really look cool poped out like that at shows.

 

Lightning#838: what kind of monitor do you use?
i came accross one i can sit ontop or ps2 and can play it, im looking for more, in dash monitor or dvd player also. Probally i can go with just a monitor sense the ps2 IS a dvd player, any recamendations for monitors and aso, how do i power both a monitor and the ps2? and lastly, does the ps2/dvd get played through your speakers in any way? thanks again, Shane

 

I got this one off of e-bay a while ago, and this monitor is a 7"....and I had a stero shop do the install, but I turn to auxillary on the headunit and that's how you hear the PS2. But I have no clue about how they installed it. Sorry I can't help you there.

I am REALLY liking this set-up. I am going to bid the screen on E-bay and maybe put the PS2 in like this.IT looks TRICK.
