    Default Playing imports on a PAL PSTwo (slim-line)

    Just wondering what the best method for playing imports on the slimline UK PSTwo would be. Speciifically:

    - If I buy a Flip-Top lid and Swap Magic Discs, how easy is it to replace the lid? Do I need to buy a particular 'version'?

    - What is the best / cheapest place to get this stuff from?

    - Is there any danger of doing damage by using this method?

    - my current TV is not 60Hz compatible. Does this matter?

    - I am running the RGB leads from the PSTwo into a Scart box, and from there into the TV's scart input. Will this set-up cause any difficulties when playing imports?

    Cheers!

    For the mini PS2, you won't have to replace the lid. Certain Swap Magic kits include the proper devices for pinning down the lid switch so the PS2 never knows that you opened it. There's pretty much no risk of damage unless you SERIOUSLY botch up the installation. Heh.
