Installing a Xbox in A Car?

Ok, Ill be getting me a car soon. Ive seen many LCD screens installed in cars and was wondering if you can install an xbox in a car. Ive seen many show cars with PS2s in them, so it must be possible. I also intend on installing a 200Gig HDD in it. My stock HDD is dead. Can I format it with xboxHDM? Aslo, if I do this, will I be able to take it in my house and get on Live?

Yes you caan put xbox's in cars you jsut have to mount it wherever you want set up the screen and jsut get an adapter for the power and as for the HDD and getting on XBL read This. I'm pretty shure you can get on xbl aslong as there's no modded content on it.

Doesn't talk about how to lock the HDD in that tut? oh well something i've though of is you have the xbox in the glove compartment and you press a button, the panel folds down and slides in revealing the xbox (how some cathodes in there for a wow affect), and a LCD screen pops up ontop of the dash.

youll be money ahead sticking a laptop hdd in it, they're made to take more shock.

i killed 2 harddrives in about a year, got a laptop hdd havent had a problem since.

also ended up uses a no dvdrom bios and added another fan as mine was getting hot being under the dash.
