someone on here was selling custom heater consoles with a screen mount where the centre vents should be. powering the thing is easy with an inverter or adaptor, and it fits reasonably nicely into the glovebox, then run the red/white sound cables into the input on your head unit and jobs a good 'un

some of the people on here though, as already said, have screens that can be removed from where their heaters used to be.

dont bother going down the xbox route, i tried that and cooked the internals. as for the ps2, im in the process of fitting 1 myself, only thing i found is that i get lines scrolling along the screen. could this be caused by the inverter?

sounds like electronic interfierence - try moving the video cables further away from the power cable if possible
