The PS2 was hard to fit, it required either pinching the fuel line( ) or move the fuel line which was done in my case. The soft top try is still there. The wireless controllers work great, they are RF, which is a must since my TV is in the cabin. No problems with the controllers, but the inverter to the PS2 was screwed up so I couldn't play it, then they got that working, and my friend broke my TV, so a new one is on order.

Ok, so could i also use the wireless route? My PS2 is in the trunk and monitor is in the dash, yet I use extensions that come out under the passenger seat and the regular controllers hook up there.

Heck, I even thought about eliminating the useless bay on the console to reduce its size.

Yeah, go wireless, it's much nicer. You just plug those things in where the controller's plug in, put batteries in the wireless controllers, and they work anywhere.

I didn't think they'd work without some kind of line-of-sight.

That was the old wireless way using infrared light, these are are over Radio Frequency, so they will work anywhere up to a certain amount(like 100 feet) away.

I'm sponsored, so I don't know exactly what it would all cost and I am allowed to tell you what I paid, but from what the audio shop told me, it was around $7000 Retail(with labor), but that could be total BS, I'm not sure. I know I can find the subs(10") for $180, and the 8" for around $100. Those are the only prices I know I can get them for if I wasn't sponsored.

$7k does not seem unreasonable. I've got right at $3k just in the in-dash monitor and navigation installed.
