    cool. where do you plan on putting it? I couldn't even fit the slim PS2 in the glovebox, so I guess a custom fabrication would be in order. Just don't know where yet.

      Whatever you do, you'll need a lot of ventilation. The 360 and especially the power brick get very hot. I was gonna put one in mine but due to the fact that you can't use the thing while the car is moving kinda sucks.

          that is usually dependant on the screen/head unit not the gaming system. there is always a way around it though. i have a friend with an Alpine screen in his Ram and he just flicks a switch to turn it on when the car is in gear....piece of cake.

              on the plus side, you could put it in your cabin and have a heater for winter time :P

                same here. You just hook up the wire that would normally go to the parking brake to a toggle switch, and ground the other end.

                  What I meant was is that if you move the 360 the slightest when it's playing then you will scratch the disc. It's a big problem with the system, so going over a bump or something could mess it up really easily.
