Mod Kit – RGB SCART (No H-Pos)

$49.95

This RGB SCART mod kit is designed specifically for Sony PVM-9L1, 14L1, and 20L1 monitors, and also works on most consumer CRT TVs manufactured before the year 2000, just like the other RGB mod kits in our store.

It enables true RGBS input via SCART, supporting home consoles, arcade boards, and other low-resolution 15kHz sources. Once installed, powering on your console will automatically switch the display into RGB mode, and powering it off will return the monitor to its original input — no manual switching required.

This version does not include horizontal (H-POS) adjustment, making it ideal for users whose CRT geometry is already well-centered or who prefer a simpler installation.


Features

  • Foxconn-Made SCART Connector – High-quality gold-plated SCART socket from Foxconn (Taiwan), a leading electronics manufacturer for Apple iPhone components.

  • SCART RGBS input (15kHz only)

  • Automatic RGB switching via SCART blanking voltage

  • High-quality SCART socket with gold-plated contacts

  • Clean, stable RGB signal with excellent image quality

  • Designed for early analogue CRTs and compatible PVM models

  • Pre-wired harness for easier installation

  • No external power supply required (uses console SCART voltage)

Compatibility

  • Works with Sony PVMs (Specifically designed for the PVM 14L1, 20L1, 14N5 and 20N5 models, no jungle IC replacement needed)

  • Works with most consumer CRT TVs pre-2000 with RGB-capable jungle/decoder chips

  • Not suitable for CRTs made after 2000 with integrated “super ICs”

  • JVC, Panasonic, and some other brands may require chip replacement or special handling

  • Check the Sunthar’s moddable CRT list here for compatibility

Installation Notes

  • Installation requires soldering to the TV mainboard

  • Suitable soldering skills are required

  • If you are not confident, professional installation is recommended

  • Installation guide available upon purchase

⚠️ Important:
Please confirm your CRT supports RGB input at the decoder/jungle chip level before ordering. This kit is not compatible with “super chip” CRTs — those require a different tailboard-style RGB mod kit.

  • The kit is not a scaler. It only enables direct RGB input (15kHz), not upscaling to higher resolutions.

  • Picture adjustments (H-Pos, geometry) may require using your TV’s built-in service menu.

  • Each unit is professionally built by experienced experts in the RGB modding field.

  • The kit comes pre-assembled and ready to install — no extra building required.

 

If you want to unlock the true potential of your CRT, this RGB SCART mod kit is the perfect solution. With high-quality components, simple installation, and compatibility with most pre-2000 TVs and PVMs, it’s the best way to future-proof your retro gaming setup.

Please read the full description below to ensure your CRT is compatible for RGB modding before placing an order. Refunds are only provided for faulty kits — change of mind returns are not accepted.

Most CRTs from the 1980s and 1990s were designed with separate chips inside:

  • A CPU/microcontroller (for menus, remote functions, tuning, etc.)

  • A video decoder (jungle chip), which handles composite video, luma, chroma, and sync.

Because the jungle chip is independent, this kit allows you to inject a clean RGBS signal directly into it, unlocking razor-sharp picture quality that composite and S-Video simply can’t deliver.

However, by the year 2000, many manufacturers started using “super ICs,” where the CPU and video decoder were combined into a single chip. These newer sets cannot be modded with this kit. That’s why this mod is designed only for CRTs made before 2000.

Rule of Thumb:

  • Two separate chips (CPU + jungle) = Moddable ✅

  • One super IC = Not moddable ❌

If you’re unsure, check your TV’s service manual or open the back and look at the board.
