Gregg Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 later this summer when I get my new headunit and screens in the headrests, I want to put a PS2 or XBOX in the glove compartment. I am just curious if anyone else has done this. I am leaning towards PS2 right now because of the slimmer profile, but just wanted to hear some input.Who knows, maybe I'll go with PS3 or XBOX 360 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exexpat Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 XBox is the only way to go. I'm doing the same mod by the end of summer. Need to use my auxilary input somehow.Too bad the company store only sells the games at COGS and not the hardware... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappo Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 XBox is the only way to go. ←Hey, can anyone guess where Exexpat works? Anyone know what the size of the game boxes are compared to the CD changer? I was thinking you might be able to use the CD changer bracket, but I think the XBox is wider than the changer.

exexpat Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Hey, can anyone guess where Exexpat works? ←But I'm not biased, just cheap. I refuse to shell out more than $20 or so per game. What about center console install, with the face of the hardware pointing to the back seat, flush mounted? Need to investigate this one a little more.

AnthonyR Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 I am also planning on something like this end of summer. Xbox is definately the way to go. Put a mod chip in it and throw a 200+Gb hard drive in there and you have plenty of room for all your music/videos/movies/games, all loaded on the hard drive without having to worry about discs. Then you can use Xbox media center as well, which is an absolutely awesome media playing program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C70drvr Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 PS2 = garbage. The game console of people who only like sports games. They're all the same, "bring the thing to the other end of the thing" :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StickThatClutch Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Nintendo 8bit!xBox is a great idea if you run xBox media center and such. You can get a lot of entertainment options out of one system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owned Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 I don't know anything about Xbox.. but PS2 doesn't fit in the glove box as is. You have to cut out part of the bottom/back to get it flush. Afterwords you'll only have a little space on the side. Check out the logitek wireless controllers, they're pretty nice. You can do an inverter, but there's a company that makes an in-car power supply mod that you swap into the unit. I forget the name but it works well, hit up google. Definitely check out Monster Cables for you A/V, IMO they're the best for the money.A friend and I were maybe going to try to fab up the pass side "kick pannel" that's in front of your knees in glass with the PS2 pushed under all the wiring. If you want something like that we can build and finish(or not if you want to do it) something like that for you or anyone else. We've done it in another friend's s10 glove box and finished it in vinyl, it came out real stock looking other than the part where the CD drawr comes out of the dash. I have a couple pics if you want to check it out. Lemmie know if you're interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
