I was told this device would do the trick, now I'm not so sure :(

I want to display the FineVu CR500 onto a LCD screen using the video out so i can align the camera. I bought the LCD screen and it has cables I have never seen before! How will this connect to my CR500 and where on earth do these skinny cables connect too?

The cable that came with my CR500 is this one:

The screen i just bought is this:

Here are the cables that are connected to the screen:

Not sure about that cable that came with your cam, cam end is as expected, the mini plug on the other end seems odd, connectors on the LCD are as expected

Don't know about an adapter to suit but a regular 3.5 mini to RCA av cable is probably what you'll need

Something like that is what's normally used to connect to a display

Other than that the LCD needs power which would be the couple of other wires highlighted

I think both are av in, if not usally the female is av in
 
I managed to connect the yellow ones together like this - will it work this way? I guess now I just need to work out how to connect those skinny cables?

Instructions are there, red power, black earth, blue is a trigger wire which is usually only needed on one of the AV inputs and not the other, powering the blue wire would automatically switch to that input for reverse camera use, remove power from the blue wire and it switched back to the other AV input

Pretty standard stuff for these types of screens
 
Ok thanks, but were about in my car do the cables go?
 
Fusebox. You should of bought a portable screen! :p

If you can find one on eBay let me know...I will send this one back, as they have a good return policy!
