You'll need an inverter mate, make sure you get one with the right power rating for your ps2, they ussually come wth pretty good instructions for wiring them up. Then its a simple plug in ps2, wire it up to back of screen and your pretty much done.

what would happen if i buy inverter which plugs into cig lighter but cut the cig adapter bit off and connect this to battery, is it going to drain battery and what can i use if it is going to drain battery.
