Yeah it was here, but sorry, I did not save the pic. I'm pretty sure it's in the gallery, I guess you will just have to look.

From what I remember, the back armrest was taken out and the Playstation 2 was placed right in the middle. It seemed like they made a matching piece with the interior to hold it in place.

Also, the car had a custom arm rest made in the front where the back two vents had a TV on top of them.

I know that's probably hard to understand without seeing it. I don't know if I have the pic saved at home, but if I do, I will post.

The one i saw was in the rear fold down arm rest
and it was installed inside the arm rest
so when the armrest was down the ps2 was accesible and when the armrest was tucked away you couldnt see it at all

I think the only way that you can do that is to cut behind the rear armrest and have the Playstation2 placed the trunk. Basically, having the front part showing when you fold down the armrest.

The pic that you are talking about, I remember pretty well. The car did not have a rear armrest...it was taken out.

Just my two cents

yes, streeteffectz is one of not the best audio installer I have ever seen. He tucks the leather over the outline of TV's so that the only thing you can see is the actual LCD screen. Absolutely amazing stuff.

As is his 3.2 TL AND 328i.

Damn 2SAVVY...I didn't realize how dirty the interior of my car was when I took that picture! I need a new one.

I like the PS2 in the armrest idea...I've been wanting to mount a second one somewhere and "FireWire" them together.
