 |
|
I have a 7" touchscreen on the dash of my car, and the connection is an odd one. I have seen this type of connector from Molex, 3M, and others and it is generally called an MDR-14 or an SKS. It looks like it might have been for SCSI or something at one point in the history of PCs.
It connects to the monitor and about 6" away it splits in to connections for power, USB, VGA, and composite video.
You can see some images in this review:

And just the cable itself...

That is it - except mine doesn't have s-video. Still, it is a big bundle of connections dangling there, and it is hard to make look nice.
What I want is to buy / make an extension cable. Basically a 12" to 24" male to female cable so just this one cable is exposed and the jumble of other connectors can be hidden in the dash.
Ever seen anything like it? Know where to buy one? Know where to get one made?
