Does any one know where I can get a factory plug to get video out for the 6 disk cd/dvd player for a 2007 4 dr Rubicon. The kid get crazy on long trips.

There is none...you have to make it yourself. See beermonkey's thread in the FAQ.

Sorry to disappoint JackMacOKC & beermonkey, but the connector is available from your local dealer. It does require some assembly, but if you are handy at all it shouldn't be a problem. The DCX part number for this connector is: 5083221AA (20 Pin Connector) I've seen prices ranging from $29 - $60 depending on the dealer.

When you receive the connector, you'll get the a bag containing the connector and 20 ~6" wires with pins crimped on the end. All you have to do is insert the pins you want to use and press the locking bar on the bottom of the connector to lock them in place. You can find detailed write-ups on how to do this with pictures on the Internet. Unfortunately I didn't take pics when I did it as the information was already readily available.

I may contact the poster of one of the write ups I used and ask if he would mind if I post his pics here.

skydyvyr, is that the part I have been searching for? None of the dealers around have been able to help me (but I have only been on the phone).

I'm not sure... what part have you been searching for?

If it happens to be the 20 Pin connector that connects to the back of any of the stock radios (including MyGig) then yes, it is the part. On the back of the stock radios, there are two 20 - Pin connectors and one 10 - Pin connector. Both of the 20 - Pin connectors are the same; although the wiring that connects to them is different.

In my other thread I was looking for a plug that fits into the back of the 6 disc, for video out. I was asking all of the dealers for the plug for the nitro video kit.

Thumbs up Nitro Video Kit...

According to the wiring harness diagrams in the Nitro Service Manual, there is no single loom for the Nitro rear seat video harness. Complicating matters is that the Harness that does connect to the rear display is part of the Headliner installed in the Nitro, so most likely, if there is a Kit that can be installed or ordered by the dealer it doesn't include any wiring between the Head Unit and the rear monitor.

The Standard Dash Loom for the Nitro includes all three plugs that connect into the back of the HU, so a parts guy at the dealer (without specific knowledge of the electrical connectors and where to find them in the parts lists) will not be able to find the connectors we're looking for. These connectors are not listed or displayed in the exploded diagrams that they use to find parts.

Regardless of that, yes, 5083221AA (20 Pin Connector) is the connector you want for the 6 Disk changer. Using this connector in conjunction with beermonkey's write up will work.

I shared some incorrect information here... The best price I've seen for this connector is slightly less than $40, not $29. I had it confused with another one I've purchased.

Sorry...
