Hey, how hard is it to install a tv in your dash,(ie, a cd player, tv combo?) also, what about a PS2?

it would be 100% custom job.
if you know car elecronics you should be fine.

the only thing you'd have to be concious of is power inversion. Most LCD screens now can are made for car installation, but a console device like a PS2 would require some sort of power inversion. Some people say its inefficient to convert DC->AC and back to DC again. That may be true but its simple and fast and requires little modification to use a power inverter. An example of this would be my laptop in the car. Made a custom swival locking bracket and used a Cheapy 175w power inverter and this setup works great. Dash mounting is fairy easy but as was stated before it would be entirly custom.

I just keep 3 things in mind:

-Cutting
-Mouting
-Electrical

All in all its not really a practical thing to have a TV in a car, but its the "popular" thing to do, so go for it!
