Xbox 360 in car ???

[Adambrown]

Hey guys

I've just bought a Clio gt 1.5 dci 106

Just wanting to know would I be able to get a 7" screen in the centre console
Also what would I need if I wanted to fit an xbox 360 into the car also
Is this possible ??????
What issue would it cause to the car ?????
Thanks

Major major power problem as the xbox will be literally eating your battery whenever it's on.

It will use a lot of battery power yes, but it's common with car audio people to put a second battery in the car. It's not a hugely difficult job, and pretty common. Best place to ask for advice on this is talkaudio.co.uk

what is the xbox 360 some sort of scaled down LHC?:S

the new 360 draws 150 watts of power (which your battery could run for about 4 hours without the engine running)

LOL!
Alex do you even know what your talking about, as said before you could install a second battery and a split charger.

i wouldnt do it with a 360 tbh, i had a ps2 in my old clio, that was simple.

xboxs have a habbit of eating discs if you knock them,
you over every bump it will probs scratch the disk pretty badly.

why not just park your car at home and play the 360 on a bigger screen

What he said. ps2 slimline one will be the best option, or maybe a PS3?

 

[Nickson]

Slimline PS2 is probs your best bet.
PS3 would probably be as bad, if not worse than a 360.
Its bigger, heavier and will be harder to find a place for it!

But PS2s are s**t?!?

Get an xbox in there, as for eating discs, install to harddrive.

they run off 12v dc aafter your powersupply unit inside so really just take the transformer, regulator, rectifier etc out and connect your positive and negative to your battery you should be fine with amout of power thats pulling , if there is get another battery in simple
