Lightbulb calling all audio/video experts...tough one

How difficult whould it be to adapt a PSone lcd screen to connect to a PS2 for in car entertainment?
Is it possible?
Is there other alternatives (cheaper) for buying an expensive lcd screen.

I know its not going to be a walk in the park, but I'm willing to spend all summer to get this going........

Where can i find more info relating to this?

What do ya guys think..........

We would need to see how it connects....via RCA jacks, or is there a special attachment? You really would be better off just buying an LCD from somwhere....probably cheaper and easier.

I agree it would be easier if we could see it...but I don't think that it is completely impossible...

looks to be alot more expensive than buying a standard 12 volt rca in car video screen

i guess im not seeing what the motivation is? even if you have a psone screen already, youd need to pay quite a bit for the pal converters, not to mention teh wiring, boards, etcetcetc...

yet you cna get inexpensive screens on ebay for less than $50.....

seriously, the market is flooded with screens. you can go to audoi tradeshows and youll find screens there for liek $80.

ebay, look for any 12 volt piece of electronics, youll find a TON of stuf fyou never knew existed

you can get screens with monitor input for a computer, you cna get rca video screens, you cna get screenst aht fit in yrou headrest, your visor, center console, etc etc etc, high res, low res, you name it!

jsut takes some searching....

id try asking the members here who actually have screens where they got theirs and for how much... whosyodadday woudl be a good source, I know he has one for sure....
