    No.. You need to understand electronics before you go ahead and do things like this.. Your batter runs at 12V DC. You PS2 runs off of 115V AC. It will not work without some kind of inverter in between them. You could, however chop up an inverter and hide it under the center console like I did.. Then just run wires to an outlet that I mounted on the side of the center console..

    Put the plug on the inside of the dashboard and leave it plugged in?

    Just go to walmart and get a inverter. Hide it somewhere in your car, plug the ps2 up and every time you want to use it flip the switch.
