Hi everyone.

I'm new here, tried searching for the answers in other threads so my apologise if that is redundant. Also i'm not any expert on the subject so be gentle.

I have a reverse camera for in car use and old lcd that i would like to pair.
Camera has got two outputs, one for video and other for power.
The screeen on the other hand uses 6 pin ps/2 style plug.
My problem is that i can't really find an adapter or converter.
Checked in Maplin and been told that they don't make these.
No luck on ebay, anything resembling what i need is in US sites, company called Lorex. Don't want to do it in ygly way by connecting everything with DIY, although it is my last resort. See attachments for reference. Thank you for your time.

Yeah, have seen it before, it is slightly different. 5 pins arund the plug and one in the middle where mine has 6 around.
There's got to be some sort of standard or do i just have incompatible bits?
