2016 GL 450 Rear Entertainment

I just purchased a CPO 2016 GL 450. It has the rear entertainment from the factory. I'm clueless on electronics! I got the DVD to work in both the front and the 2 back TVs but is there a way to connect my kids' Ipads, Iphones, Nintendo Switch, or another gaming system? Which cables do I need to buy or can I do this with bluetooth? Thanks

Yes, this should do the job.

You would need hdmi to rca and this for the apple devices. Although there may be other options. Good luck!

Yes, that will work with those apple devices. Not sure about android devices.

It's been a while since I tried it, but when I hooked up my gaming system, it worked, but we lost some functionality. Games that were multiplayer that used split screen, like Minecraft for example, would not work with split screen. You could only have one screen up. But multi-player games where the two players were on the same screen, like super mario world, then it worked. I think it was a limitation of the RCA cables, but not sure. Just FYI.
