The connection on the block is for an RDDP, some blocks allow you to connect an RMD, but from the looks of your cable connection on the block you will need an RDDP / SDT kit.

Just to chime in here! The connection on the fused distro is for a unit named ZRDT3 and not the RDDP/SDT kit.

The best way to use the RMD display u have is to cut off one of the plugs. When taking off the grey inulation of the cable u will find a green, a black a red and a yellow wire. Connect the red and yellow wire to +12Volts and the black and green wire to ground. You will see it´s going to do it´s job just fine! 8) Just make sure u take a switched +12Volts source for the red and yellow wire. If not doing so the RMD will be on all day long.

If they are original, they need to be replaced, regardless of how they look. They leak out the bottom so it's usually hard to see. Sometimes you can test by sliding a piece of paper underneath them to see if you get any electrolyte on it.

Not sure what you mean, but if the caps are original I suggest not plugging it in, or they could fry on the spot.
