Smile Aux Video Cable for COMMAND MM System (FAKRA A Jack to female RCA) Only $7 Shipped!!!

Finally got the right cable on ebay to use to be able to plug in the Reverse camera or other auxillary video source into the command multimedia unit in my w204 C350. It is FAKRA "A" jack to female RCA and is 12" long.

I had to email the seller on ebay and ask him to custom manufactuer this type of cord since he did not usually make the cord with the right type of FAKRA connection to female RCA....

Here is the link for those looking to add DIY auxillary video, only $7 shipped on Ebay with buy it now option (many available still) :

To bad you couldn't get it with a 90 degfree FAKRA. It would make it much easier to plug in if you have the I-pod adaptor.

Exact cable is this one :

http://www.car-interface.com/product_detail.php?id=226&mode=14


18 bucks plus shipping I think. Expensive but perfect.
On ebay you can find a FAKRA A type. This will fit the Comand, but the proper cable is a FAKRA E type. For video signals. Green color like the Comand connector.
You can buy both A and E and it will work but if you want the perfect fit you need an E type. The one of the link. Ciao
