Ok, m getting a dashboard and im fitting my indash DVD console into the gove box Behind the face of the dash so when the little glove box is opened, you can access the DVD console.

now Im thinking about making / Getting a Drop down (Normal car style) glove box too, to go underneath the whole dash, which will drop down and contain my PS2 and Controllers.

Any ideas on how I could do this?

Yea if your guna put even more ice in your car which i must say is comin along nicely, go for a decent alarm system will help on the insurance as well, an we all know what a b*****d that can be.

Seperate globe box sounds cool, try having a look at some in other cars down the scrappers and possibly rippin one out of there and adjusting that to fit? just an idea otherwise, you can try to build an mdf enclosure? this'd probably look better because you could cover it in the same colour carpet as the rest of the car so you could try an make it look like a factory add on an blend in much better?

Ive got an alarm, but it only sets off if a door or the boot is opened. Dosent go by shock sensor, so You could quite hapily smash a window and get in.

Im going to scrap the idea of a PS2 / DVD player for now, Cant really be bothered and dont actually need it to be honnest.

Might do it eventually if I get time and a bit of cash for a good alarm.

Get and alarm first. A Ps2 is what some theiving chav scum might nick from it that otherwise might leave it alone. Cool idea though.
