If you're looking where to plug it in just look for a plug hole in that shape

if not then i dont know lol sorry

[del...]

isn't that an "s" connector? for stereo hook-ups and the like?

[NotALlama]

Can you post annother pic its kinda hard to tell...and what exacly is the other end of that wire hooked up too?

[KEGS]

don't know but it look's old

[TheAstronaut]

no its not old, it goes to a 8 inch lcd screen, it's one of the connectors they make so it can plug into like a million different adapters. i need to know what its called so i can get a "____ to RCA" adapter the ____ being this plugs name lol

i dont have any better pictures.. did you click on it? it gets bigger

[TheAstronaut]

nope sorry this is an S connector, thanks though

[dopefiend]

it looks like it might be an s-video connector, but you could take the pic into radio shack or something and find a matching cable

[TheAstronaut]

no the picture i posted above would be a S-video connector but thanks though..
