Unhappy Fire Stick TV add on not working

Connected Firestick to Rear Aux Inputs Rear Console with Exec Seats. I also added a HDMI Converter.
Couple of Questions:
1. I get Clear Video but no Audio?
2. I also thought there is a way to display the input to all 3 screens...
3. I can also connect to the Center Console Input, but have the same questions....

Any help would be appreciated.

I also considered Apple TV, but no Audio no matter what I try.

I suspect a defective HDMI to RCA unit. May want to return and try another. Not sure about three screen use.

Did you try it with anything other that Fire Stick to check if it's your system or the Fire Stick? Maybe also try the same setup on some older TV or so to see if the module you purchased work? Does your car work fine with USB (assuming USB is an option)? I never tried but I was planning to test Google Chrome Cast setup today however my vehicle is a facelift so it has a direct HDMI port (I'll report back if I see similar issues anyway).

Tried 2 Different units. Video works but no Audio. I also tried 2 different sticks. My car is a 2014, it does not have HDMI in the center console, just USB and 3 RCA Video ( Yellow ) Audio Left Red, Audio Right White.

If Audio isn't working regardless of the method (i.e.: Also with USB as a source) sounds like there is an issue with your system. I assume you know how to change the settings in the screen so that the source of Audio is the car speakers, right? Does it work with Headsets, or no audio too with speakers even when streaming music through a USB drive?
