Ok so it may sound stupid but im using it as a mp3 player anyway and since it has music videos for it too figured id have it somewhere so you can see the screen. I just cant figure out exactly where would be best. it wont be staying in the car all the time. i thought maybe a mount in the glove box so i can just close/open it when needed and the mount out of the way. Other ideas were on top the pass side of the dash or down below the radio. None of wich are really looking better than any others at this time.

I started mocking up a cradle for it last night after searching online and seeing that there really is nothing good out there yet. I decided on the placement to be slightly higher than the center vents. It gives the best veiw for the pass and the driver. Under the radio the screen would be blocked most the time to the pass. In the sun light i found it didnt matter where it was the glare was the same, even in the glove box. Now i just have to get off my *** and build the real cradle and take some pics of it all.

I dunno where you would put it. But thats an awesom idea. Just remember, playing video games while driving is hazardous to teh health.

Yeah, that is a pretty fine idea, you should hook it up with a charger in the mount also and make it all very clean.

The holidays and my new gf slowed me down a bit on this but i found the psp to be really nice in the car. I saved map quest direcions on it and used it to find my way a few days ago works very nicely. And if anyone cares to load saved files in the internet browser of the psp just put in "Filesp/what the directory is"
