Default PlayStation2 Hookup in my ES300 ?? Help!

I would like to install a PS2 in my 1993 ES300 to use it as a DVDplayer. Now what else exactly would I need? A small video screen, of course. Im guessing that I would just need the Video wire and run that from the screen to the PS2. How would I get power to the PS2? It is normally AC operated? How would i get it to power up inside my car?? PLease give me as much detail as you know. Thanks! Also, how much do you think a small 6in or 7in screen would cost??

ok, you need a power inverter... that transfers power from DC 12V to 120AC. $50 about. then you need audio, either you modulate it into your radio signal. or you get a new radio and plug it in. my 5.6 visor installed screen was $349 installed. it was cheap. i want a 7" in my dash. the video screen should already come with a wire that you will use as an input. and you will need barrel connectors to connect the PS2 wires into the input wire of the video and input wires of the audio. i have a ps2 installed in my car, well, really the screen is installed. personally. it isn't worth the money and i wouldn't recommend doing it unless you have a new radio, and good sound. oh yeah, don't put the visor in front of the driver's seat headrest, unless it's low enough so that cops cant see, because they will pull you over for having a tv on in the front of the car...

i have a brand new headunit by Sony. So, all I need is the power inverter and a set of audio connections?? WIll they go in the auxillary inputs or the RCA inputs on the back of my stereo? I want to mount a TVscreen on my dash somewhere. I dont want it in the visor.
