Gamecube in Ralliart

ok so im going to put my gamecube into my RA since its just collecting dust....anyway yes i know i need to get a power inverter etc now the dilema is that under the seats is not an option cause A. it doesn't fit and B. Driver side seat has an amp under and passanger has a hideaway unit C. to change discs it opens from the top, now this issue of not having a sliding tray to load discs is really what buggars me and im having a hell of a time trying to figure out where i can hide it yet still have it set up so that it is quite easy to change discs, hit power button etc. one idea i have is to cut out some of the plastic panel under the driverside dash and mount it on a bit of an angle snug with the firewall...so far thats the best ive got...if anyone knows does the cube run well upside down i don't see why not but you never know cause that would make it easy just to hide it up under the dash. this ones definately going to take some creativity...please don't flame cause you don't like gamecube im just putting it in there for the hell of it mainly kinda like why a dog licks his balls...cause he can.

Try mounting it sideways instead of upside down?

It should run upside down just fine. Have you considered installing it behind the armrest of the backseat, might be easier to create a mount there.

The gamecube has the little metal balls that click the disc in so there shouldn't be any issues with discs falling out. You should be able to mount it upside down.

will definately think about the armrest dealie but i will have to test the controllers to see how goo the wireless is...since the post though my best idea is to fiberglass my kick panels and basically make a cover for the gamecube that expands from the passenger kick and cut out a hole at the top and add some hinges so i can acces the disc tray...? thats all ive got lol ps i would do the fibergallsing myself in case anyone is going to tell me thats expensive

i dont know about it being able to play upside down, you can always try it in your house... . i do know that if i change position of the system, like, from upside down to side ways, or right side up or watever i ****s it up. few days ago my me and friend were playin 360 and we turned it from right side up to side ways and it just ate the disk.
