Wiring up Linitx for power

Hi guys, I've searched but can't seem to find the answer to this...

I want to power my Linitx screen through my M2-ATX and was intending on using the cigarette lighter adapter that came with the screen.

I chopped the adapter off the end of the wire and found one white and one red wire. I know they need to connect to a yellow and black wire on the Molex, but which one goes where?

Dismantle the cigarette lighter adapter plug to find the polarity of the two wires, (the centre pin is usually positive)
The positive then attaches to the yellow on the molex

Excellent, thank you for that.

For future reference, the linitx cigarette lighter has the red cable to the centre pin, therefore being +ve I assume.

Red to Yellow
White to Black
