Default has anyone put a ps2 in thier car?

I,ve been trying to figure out where to put a ps2 at in my car and I was just seeing if anyone else has done this. and what ou came up with, I wanna keep it remotely visable for wireless controllers, all I can come up with is in front of the bar behind the drivers seat.

i did the glovebox in my G35C... however it needed to be left open if you had controllers plugged in (even wireless ones)... i dunno if the 350z glovebox is bigger or smaller but in mine i couldn't close it with anything plugged in since i only had like 1.8" in front of the PS2 when closed

Im doing a Xbox right now. Tonight I found that if I take all the guts out of the X BOX I can fit the motherboard below the center console. Everything will be hidden. I also modded my ash tray to fit the controller ports. The console will be gloss black.

I put mine in my glove box and the wireless controllers work fine, even when the glove box is closed. They are RF I believe so it doesn't need line of sight.

Get a slim ps2 and you can fit it on the top little bin behind the pass seat. I got one in my Z. I will try to post pics later.

Steve nice setup.

thanks for the comments, the glove box is behind the seat, and the little storage behind the seats isn't quite deep enough unless i cut it back some and then i'd still have to pull it out cause the thinner ps2 only opens from the top, i'd love to see some pics of the x-box that got gutted and put in, im looking for something thats easy to get at, so i don't wanna go with the glove box, i'm really digging how 350 mark put his in the center.

glove box as well. simple but effective not a bad place unless you plan on using it frequently. i mainly have it for show, plus it serves as another A/V source. i don't play video games much/at all or i would get wireless controllers. it stays covered most of the time.
