it doesnt have any plugs though the guy did mark the cables
red = +12vdc
white = video
screen = ground
i understand that i need two plugs one being an rca for the video

now for the video do i need? screen + white
or does it just use the center pin ??????

hi,
The screen ground is common to both the Video signal and the +12V.

Connect an extra ground wire to the screen.
Then connect, White/screen to RCA/phono connector
and Red and second screen wire [ the new wire] to the +12vpsu connector.
