Installing a gaming system in a car is gaining popularity all over the world. It is important to understand that there is no formal manual on how to do this; however, car gaming installation can be done fairly easily.

To start the process, a television needs to be installed in the car. This is to be done before a gaming system goes anywhere near your car.

Don not forget that while choosing a location for the system in the car, you must ensure that it is protected. Plus, it needs to be in a spot that the system can easily attach to your car's energy source.

The first step in so far as installing the car mount for gaming system is to install a television into the car. This television must also have input slots that will function with the gaming console. A car television generally goes into the headrest of a seat and requires that you make a hole in the rear of the headrest and then you can fit the frame of the television into that hole.

After the television has been successfully installed, the gaming console is to be mounted. The gaming system needs to be mounted in a very safe place. Most often, if space allows, it is mounted under the passenger seat. The system can also be easily mounted to the dashboard.

After the console has been securely mounted, it needs to be connected to the television with the use of RCA cables. For a headrest installation of the television, the cables should be run through the upholstery of the seat to connect; this works best when the gaming system is mounted under the passenger seat.

If you mounted your gaming system to the dashboard of your car, you will notice that a longer cable is needed for connection. This cable should go through the upholstery of the seat from below. After this is all set up, the system is ready to be plugged into the car's electrical system.

For this, use a power adaptor from the console and connect it to the electrical system with the help of a DC inverter. You can take the inverter and place it near the floorboard on the passenger side and then you can plug the inverter to the cars cigarette adapter.

It is best to run the power cord from the gaming system underneath the seat or between the seat and dashboard to avoid it becoming a hazard once attached to the inverter. Then you must find a convenient place to keep the controller and any games.

A good car organizer can be found at any auto supplies store for storing gaming accessories. Be sure to get inverters that can reach up to 400 watts so that it can muscle the television and gaming system.
