I need recommendation of a telescope for observing the sun

Hi everybody.
I will be traveling to Spain to observe the Solar Eclipse in August, and I would like a minimalist telescope I could buy just to observe the sun (I will get the filter, of course).

This telescope I would carry in one of my 23kg checked in suitcases I have available. I have 2 suitcases available, but I would dedicate one for the telescope.

Even though the limit is 23kg, I would like it to be lighter than 20kg, or even lighter if possible.

What would you recommend?

I need help finding an adaptor for this unknown type of port

Background: I've bought a second hand van with a rear dash camera already installed (picture 4), but without the actual dash camera. The ex owner does not have it.

Issue: I want to take advantage of the already made installation. However, I couldn't find a dash with this type of port, and the dash itself is discontinued.

The ports are as seen in picture 1. The left one appears to be a micro usb type d, or 10 pin mini usb. It's not clear to me, but from here is where the image comes.

What I need is an adapter from this port, into AV, as seen in the picture 2. The right port I figured it is a power connector.

In picture 3 you can see the instructions from the original missing dash camera, already discontinued on the market, and I couldn't find another dash with the same ports.

The big questions are:

What is the name of this hdmi port?

What adaptors should I look for?

Does it even exist?

Another suggestion without dismounting everything to install the new camera?

Looking forward to hearing from you.
