PS2. the only thing you the DVD can do that the ps2 cant is resume and for all that you can just skip to the scene that you were at when you got out of the car.

If you are installing just one moniter stay with the ps2 because you get a dvd plus video games. if doing mutiple moniters I would suggest both.

NOOO... dont go with PS2 if you are going to be watching DVDs longer then like 1.5 hours. Mine overheats and yours will to. Go with a good quality DVD player ment to play DVDs.

my only concern would be the rattle and bang on the everyday driving.... Are the ps2's up to it. They cost lots more then a standard dvd . Sounds cool though. Let us know how it holds up.

No mine overheated in my house when it wasnt in a cabinent or anything and was runninng of standard house-voltage. I think sony needs to put a better fan in their PS2 or find a better design so air circulates better.
