You can make custom brackets and mount it just about anywhere you'd like. Most people do it under the glove compartment. Usually there's a flat spot right there but ours is too shallow.

Have the passenger side air bag removed, and stick it in there. I've seen it done before in a civic and it looks pretty cool.

how phat would that be if you could mount it in the dashboard to the right of the climate control so the eject and power were flush mounted to the wood grain, then you could just hit eject and the disc try would open right next to the climate control all pimp like!!!! sounds cool in my head, if you can picture what im saying you will think it is cool too!!

Penny- pimp idea, I like it, the only thing though would be the controlers and memory card, I have it wired right not so the controller is un the arm rest compartment so its always hooked up, but I think it would look pimp if done right


Trickeout- you think theres a way to put the PS2 in there and still have a lil room in the glove box for lil'things??


Truraysa- I really like that idea, I might have to take a look at it, Im not sure how much I can do though cause I have a mod chip in my PS2, but Ill still have to research that a bit

Are you talking about the one that was cut in half and stacked on top of each other?
