Roy,
I've spent some time looking at this again this morning (wife in kitchen, cats killing the xmas deccies, no kids...) and everythng I can find on your problem is pointint to these cables probably being intended to go into a 13-pin DIN connector, hence the tiny cable sizes. The connectors for each monitor thrn go into a control box like a SAVV AVM-X5030F or AVM-X5050F which appears to be an AV Switcher and video amp.
This obviously comolicates matters a bit, and again there's no info on the web or on SAVV's web site. They do have a support contact address in the US ra@savv.com which might give you an option.
The wiring is therefore likely to have:
+12v - looks like the Red
+12v switched (power on only with ignition on - sometimes call 'ACC' for accessory.
0v - looks like the Black
Video +
Video Gnd (screen on whichever cable carries video).
Audio L -these monitors appear to have an IR headphone capability and the audio feeds may provide this too, or it might come up its own connector.
Audio R - see above.
Audio Gnd (again this should be screen and both may be tied together as a single screen)
Remote out to switcher - carries signal from remote contol system down to the switcher unit?
I think you have set us a bit of a challenge All the downloads on the SAVV site are for 2008 so out of date!
Off to Xmas Dinner before I get 'that' look!

Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.

This is where im up to so far:
I have connected the folowing wires:
red = 12v
black = earth
all open wires (screens) = earth
orange = red phono lead(audio)
grey = white (audio)
blue = yellow phono lead (video) plug connected to dvd
blue, orange and grey is screened ,so i take it these are phono wires.
I get a very faint picture but very distorted and a fuzzing noise with a band running up and down the screen. Cant get any sound and Cant get a clear picture for some reason!
I have the green,white and yellow wires leftcoming from the monitor doing nothing, i would imagine that they go somewhere?
This is getting to be a headache now!
