I just bought a power inverter for my Ps2 tonight at Radio Shack. I went with the 300 watt one they had. I believe they had two choices. My suggestions is to go with the Ps2 to begin with, because it has a DvD player built right in. I did a "custom install" with the Ps2 next to the e-brake. Take a look at my pics in the link. Also I mounted the screen right in the cup holder. It's a 6' inch monitor. I'll be posting more pictures soon. Maybe a DIY if this seems "sticky" enough.

i suggest you find a Ps2 on Ebay like I did. They are fairly inexpensive. I can tell you want to play games so you have games all in one as well as watching DvD's. Sony is a good company and Ps2's are reliable and fun. If you want just a Raw DvD player look into a stand alone panasonic. An indash all inclusive player will save you some space but will be more expensive. The cheap route I belive is a Ps2 and a stand alone monitor. Make sure the monitor comes with TFT.

It auctually sits there perfect in the cupholder. During the day there is no glare at night it lights up perfect and is totally visible throughout the car.
