You can get HDMI to RCA adapters just about anywhere that sells electronics.
Since adapters are not converters, these are for very specialized monitors that can accept a digital component video input signal. Which eliminates most all consumer LCDs.
You might be able to do so if the factory RCA inputs are component(R,G,B), but need a digital HDMI to analog HD component converter. However, will not get HD if the RCA input is a single video connector(yellow), only composite video.
But still may not work at all. HDMI not only carries uncompressed digital video/audio, but can incorporate data which is typically used for enforcing digital rights management such as HDCP. Some conversion boxes support HDCP, which may allow you to do so.
Thanks, I really should have known that if I'd just thought about it for a sec. I mean HDMI is digital and RCA is analog, duh.
