    Open up the connector and there should be two wires. The one leading to the middle pin thing on the connector you connect to the 12v (yellow) wire and the wire connected to the outer part of the connector you connect to the ground (black) wire.

    Update on my LCD mod


    [​IMG]


    In this folder there also some movies of the LCD playing a movie..

    Pictures are perfect.. but text size are to small to be shown...

    Is it possible to have a smaller resolution the 800*600 ??
