    You can ask tabong for the URL where he bought his antenna w/ F connector. Mine is SMA type connector and so an additional SMA to F connector adapter is required.

    Also, it seems that the cable is for video output, i.e., what you view in your HU can also be viewed in rear monitors through that cable. You might want to experiment & measure the pins at the RCA output though with a digital multimeter.

    Thanks @Mitz done with the installation it was the correct port. The cable for montero was a breeze to setup. i connected the + wire with a red wire at the back and the ground to the HU default ground and all is done! thanks
