PSP

Post by sparticus »

Has anyone thought of putting a PSP in their car? How cool would that be. It'll be a cheaper way of putting a moniter and playstation and DVD player in.

How easy would it be to get something made up that could hold the PSP?

Most people have PS2's in their car, i'm yet to see an original PS in anyone's car, but remember that the PS1 actually ran off a 12V power suppply so it would probably be an easy thing to mount. The PSP runs games at about the PS1's capabilities anyway.

As schumie said too, it would have to be an interesting mount to be able to utilise properly, and i don't think you can plug in an external controller so it would be rather hard to operate

at work we hooked a psp to some guys toyota RAV 4 sound system.

It's still only a stero output so the best you can hope for is Prologic and Prologic 2 sort of.

I would think simple way would be just get a Y splitter.
Then plug it from your psp audio into the aplifiers two RCA inputs, if you have an amp installed.
