Anyone found a decent way of fitting/mounting a games console? |

I think someone on D3 has done this... worth looking over there?

Not particularly pimp my ride, but if I can get a console for £50 and bastardize it a bit it could sit under the drivers seat for easy access, bit of leather trim and you'd never know it was there. I'm more interested in where to hide the wiring rather than just plug it into the aux sockets. I have the rear ent package anyway so it's no giant leap... |

I found the underside of the centre rear seat a perfect position and trimmed a small letterbox size hole in the plastic trim to allow me to insert discs without having to lift the seat.

I figured if I shaped a cover and trimmed it, I could mount under the drivers seat and not hack any of the original trim. I guess I can find a wiring diagram to feed into the av circuit in the center console under the fridge or something like that. I don't mind hacking a second hand xbox however... |

I have a set up that allows me to interchange the XBOX360 Elite or a PS3 and play online games on the move with mobile internet. Photo is here, fitted it all myself so any questions let me know

it is a letter box the flap is up which is unfortunate as the seat is folded but in normal position you cant see anything until a disk pops out and the disk lifts the flap up, works fine and keeps the cosmetics of the car, I can eject the disk from the front using the PS3 bluetooth remote, and the wife just pops a new game, kids keep their seat belts on. works great. xbox360 just goes in its place as well the dive tray just pops out the letter box. |

I got an 2 GIG per month data package for £10 but the bandwidth roll's over, the kids arent on it al the time so have never gone over the limit.... it gives me mobile wi-fi for for anyone in the car with a laptop as well, and blackberry etc. If your ever on the M25 and see the car feel free to connect... it is the ultimate mobile hot spot |

I wouldn't mind doing something similar when the kids grow old enough for computer games
