i got ps2 with guitar hero in my car.

what kind of headunit do you have?

what you gotta do is get a power inverter and hook it up to the car battery. Run the power cable from the ps* to the inverter. Then plug the rca cables into the rca outlet in the headunit harness.

After that you gotta make sure you turn the Aux/ A/V on from the headunit.

your going to need a very strong power inverter to power the game consul. a good place to mount it so the game counsol dose not get damage from bumps or skip while in game play, your going to have to ground out the safty feature on the deck so it can play while driving and the deck should have rca's just liek a tv to plug and play. dont forget about a good place for controller reception

and probly a stronger alternator and/or marine batter

How do you wire the inverter? Could I wire it to my capacitor? I drive to edmonton which is four hours from where I live, but I don't even drive in winter. I want to be able to play blue rays haha and look at pictures.

i would hook it up to a relay and then use the moonroof/sunroof as your fuse so it could go on with the key and up the fuse 5amps. because an inverter will eat up your battery if hardwired wrong
