You will have to buy a FM modulator you can get them from any audio place around $20
Your red and white wire will go into the FM modulator and you program you deck to pick up the frequency... if you need any more help please PM I can even install it for you....

wat are you using the ps2 for?.. games or dvd?... do u have a screen?... FM modulator would be

the way to go... the only way...

or u can get a AUX cable if your deck has an AUX input jack at the back

i was looking to do the same thing
i have new ps2 and good quality deck
will i still need the fm modulator?
how much would it cost to install after i got a screen?

It all depends if your deck has a Aux input. If it has then you have no problems connecting your Audio RCA to your deck. Just have a look at the back of the deck if it has a Aux Input. If it does not then you will need a FM modulator.....

With the pricing you have to check with your local car audio specialist.....

go a deck with AUX input... minimum of $300 for a deck with AUX in... well that price for a

good unit, actually worth buying... FM Modulators suck...

pm jackosimm and ask him hes done it recently

Buy a new headunit with AUX IN and play it safe. You are looking at the least $300.

Make sure you get a good power inverter, or a computer cooling fan. Mine over heats after about an hour or so, and is anooying at times.

Its a great thing to do with ur car, fun little party trick, and you can put live concert music DVD's in, switch the monitor off, and control it with the PS2 control, great stuff:thumbsup:

As for locating the PS2, mine is leaning up just against the right hand side of the car. So basically its standing up (as the ps2 was designed to). Cheaper and again safer than cutting wholes in your glove boxes.

Thanks for the PM mate. Ill try dig up the link to the pic's I posted in the Gallery.

HERE (http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=16422&highlight=ps2) is the link. It is pretty much an El Cheapo install, for just over $350 Im stoked(I supplied PS2).
It's held in with heavy duty double sided tape and velcro, like I said, el cheapo.
Good thing is, I can simply and easily removed it when required.
