View Full Version : Does anybody use their PSP to watch movies in car. 06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC 02-08-2006, 05:12 AM ive hooked up my PSP to my tC. But my question is has anybody else done this, and where did you mount (velcro) your PSP? sheep 02-08-2006, 05:17 AM Hmmm.....just velcro? Is this for you while you are driving? If so, big issues if a cop sees this...... 06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC 02-08-2006, 06:13 AM No mostly just for looks, and friends to watch. Well it has to be mounted so that it can be removed. So mostly i was just asking if anybody has come up with a creative way to do this? :pray: crayonBOX 02-08-2006, 06:38 AM there was ONE person i remember with a tC i believe - who made a foam insert with a cutout to fit the PSP - then hid the audio plug in the foam - looked good... i personally wouldnt use it 06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC 02-08-2006, 06:42 AM ill be using it for cheap entertainment until i get my Eclipse DVD/Nav unit. djct_watt 02-08-2006, 08:39 AM Since when is a PSP cheap? 06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC 02-08-2006, 07:38 PM Im a Tech Junky. I bought my PSP the first week it came out, so ive had it for over a year already. $260 for something that plays Games/Music/Movies/Browses the Internet/Stores Photos is Cheap and well worth the price. :eyebrow: wubaru 02-08-2006, 08:01 PM http://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=70178 wubaru 02-08-2006, 08:03 PM i a tech junky too, i got my psp on the release day as well :). ive always wanted to install the psp in my dash. heres a link of a nice one http://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=70178 CSM-ScionGuy 02-08-2006, 08:04 PM ^ I'm a tech freak just like you. I use my psp to watch movies/tv shows in the car connected to the aux port when I'm waiting in the car or for other passengers. Bought the psp and rarely use it now, just like the ipod video! But I still want it! 06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC 02-08-2006, 08:17 PM Thanks for the Link that helped :bow: gave me an idea. But yea im the same way, i have to get the Tech stuff ill use it and sometimes i wont, but either way i just have to have it. When i get my DVD/Nav HU im going to put a PS3 in when it comes out. wubaru 02-09-2006, 02:56 AM ive went through a million ideas of ways to put on a detachable yet flush and clean looking psp attatchment. fiberglass is defnintely the best way, with some kind of opening like a glove box. have u guys seen the car adapter/mp3 radio adapter. allows u to play mp3s on ur psp through ur car. it works like a charm. only 20 bucks. THansenite 02-09-2006, 04:00 PM I just use a portable DVD player when I go on long trips. The 7in screen is much better to watch movies on than the PSP. I hook up the DVD player to a FM modulator so I can play the audio through my car speakers. Works well for me. 06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC 02-09-2006, 08:14 PM Yea, but the good thing about the 2006 tC is the AUX plug-in in the center console. Dont need the FM modulator. I already have the PSP, but am planing on getting a DVD/Nav HU. So getting a portable DVD player wouldnt make sense while having the PSP.
