Best place is probably under the passenger front seat.

It will be out of the way of prying eyes, and the tray loading cd means you dont need loads of space.

Stick some strong velcro to the underside to stop it moving around.

Mines under the driver seat, and the converter is under the passenger seat

Okay in answer to your questions:

1.) Whether or not your standard battery will cope depends on what else you are running and how loud/often you have your system cranked up. To give you an idea I am running 3 amps, 2 x 12" subs, 5.6" screen, playstation and a few other bits (speed detector etc) and I have no problems with mine. So I reckon you should be alright.

2.) Invertor - go to an ICE specialist. My local Ice dealer wants 170 quid for the ps2 invertor which he reckons is a special type of power supply. How true this is I dont know. The invertor for the playstation 1 is only 80 quid though. I bought my invertor off ebay for 44 quid. (Sorry for all the use of the word quid but the pound symbol is broken on my keyboard!)There are a couple of companies on ebay that sell them with different wattage ratings. Have a look on there you will definately save money.
