the psp in my car

 

oh my god

 

what? lol i wanted it mounted so i could see the screen when i play songs while driving or movies for my passengers lol it works great, even the guy at the acura dealership saw it and this it was pretty sweet lol ....no company was making a car mount for the PSP until after i made my own :-p...its hooked up to play through the tape deck and the mount was made so the conection for the remote and the a/c cable could still be connected so i don't lose power and it plays right through the stereo system

 

way to improvise!

not too attractive in my opinion...but sounds like it works for you

 

thats an early pic...its still a work in progress...added some padding so it doesn't rattle and so the psp sits nice and snug... not bolted to the dash nor any holes drilled, hangs right off the a/c vent so it can be removed incase i trade it in

 

Dude, at first I thought that pic was just a joke, but it sounds like you're serious. Its your car though, but personally I think that looks horrible...

 

I knew it wasn't a joke, but I still couldn't believe it. If your going to use this middle school device, I wouldn't attach it to the dash. Just run the cables and you can sit it in your lap..............sorry but I have to agree with Warren803 thats just hidious

 

not a big fan of the setup, but its a good location if you get one of these... http://www.navigadget.com/index.php/...ware-unveiled/ I also just saw it on gizmodo.com ..... maybe eventually it will make its way over here...

 

About a month ago we announced the arrival of the GPS add-on hardware for Sony’s PSP. And if you read the article you’d know that there was no known software for GPS navigation. As it turns out a company called “Edia” will be the first to make use of this add-on GPS hardware on the PSP. The car-navigation software will have maps of Japan and will even have POI capabilities.

There’s a good chance it won’t make it to North America so soon but the Japanese will be able to get this as soon as December this year. The GPS hardware alone will cost about $50.

 

sorry for the second post... dam edit feature.... it seems like the mount is nestled on top of the vent blades.... 1) are you able to point them in a different direction, they appear to both be pointing down 2) are you afraid that it might break the blade on the vent...

 

thats why i said ..... maybe eventually it will make its way over here...

 

This is no joke. there's a reason i don't want the psp sitting in my lap, safety issues, i don't wanna have to look down while changing the song, with this set up i can at least use my peripheral vision to look over the dash board. its also set up this way so for long drives, my passengers can watch movies, or since i'm on the road as much as i am commuting to school, i can nap in the car or just rela and watch a movie or listen to music in the parking lot while waiting for someone or waiting for class to start. and if that GPS program does arrive in the states for the psp IF it ever does, i'm gonna get it.

 

I think that's a pretty cool idea.

 

c'mon guys be easy on him, it sucks to have no nav so he just found a way to incorporate a media device to the car at a minimal expense. when i had my treo 650 i was playing music videos through the tape deck and it sounded a bit better than my ipod!

 

i for one think that is badass, like damn man, way to work with what you got, sure it sticks out a little, but you got games and movies, and MP3 capability, so screw all the people who dont like it, as long as you get good use out of it!

 

 

double

 

nice mod. really clean

 

Just be careful it doesn't break off the bottom vanes of your vents when you hit a big bump. I doubt they were designed to hold that much weight.

 

Whatever floats your boat dude.

 

you and your gps/psp mumbo jumbo.... check out my cell phone the sidekick!!! it comes with internet and all... so you can just go on mapquest and it is easier and more comprehensive to find directions

 

my cell phone has GPS with turn-by-turn instructions haha, that sidekick thing is so wierd...my friend has one.

 

sidekicks are the best thing that happened to mankind since the wheel. JJaber06 is your phone a hiptop?

 

IT doesn't weigh that much, and its pretty snug in the vent so there is no chance of play to vibrate and wear out where the vane connects to the side.

 

Who are you? Paris Hilton? LOL j.k!!!

OH yea, the PSP also has internet capability but works of a wifi network so it needs a wireless signal

 

I had a similar rig to hold my iPod in my former car and it broke the vent when I hit a larger bump.

 

Any pics?

i'd like to see if you got some

 

No, I sold that car two years ago to get my TL.
