About this kit

Pre-dawn at the trailhead: tyres down, low range set, convoy idling. Your Pajero’s display wakes fast with the first waypoint up before you clip the UHF back. Solid, OEM-style fascia keeps the dash tidy and the unit stays stable after heat and dust — built for Australian tracks.

Supports Apple CarPlay & Android Auto via CarLink 2.0 (pre-installed).

Features you’ll use

Built for rough stuff: a solid mount and tidy fascia that won’t rattle loose on corrugations. Bright, noon-readable panel; quick boot and steady Bluetooth even after a hot soak. It suits the Pajero cabin without fuss, with harnessing that keeps steering-wheel controls and camera where fitted.

2006-2014 Mitsubishi Pajero Head Unit Kit

Solid, OEM-style mount

Built for rough tracks, this kit uses an OEM-style fascia and solid mounting so the display sits firm and looks like it belongs. Harnessing keeps steering-wheel buttons and the factory camera where fitted. The finish is tidy and easy to wipe after dust, so the cabin stays neat even when the trail isn’t.
  • Solid mount, no rattle
  • Tidy OEM look
  • Camera retained where fitted
  • Wipe-clean fascia finish

Tune past mud-tyre roar

Quiet the mud-tyre roar and sharpen staging with a 16–31-band EQ, per-channel time alignment and Hi-Res support. Bluetooth with aptX-HD keeps calls clear. The unit plays nice with Rockford Acoustic Design systems in Exceed trims, and it’s amp-friendly if you’re running a sub — clean pre-outs make upgrading painless.
  • Flexible DSP and EQ
  • Per-channel time alignment
  • Compatible with Rockford
  • Amp-friendly RCA pre-outs

Hands on wheel, voice on

Wireless via CarLink 2.0 keeps day-to-day simple: hop in, it reconnects, and you drive. Calls and messages run through voice so your hands stay on the wheel. Use Google Maps for tracks and detours, cue Spotify for convoy tunes, and rely on the bright, anti-glare panel when midday sun hits corrugations.
  • Auto-reconnect on starts
  • Voice-first control for calls
  • Google Maps and Spotify
  • Cable-free every day

Maps that work off-grid

Download map areas before you head bush and you’ll stay guided through out-of-coverage stretches while saving mobile data. Pair an OBD2 dongle and use Torque to watch coolant temps, intake air and basics on climbs. It’s a simple safety net for touring — glanceable gauges when the work gets slow and steep.

The DriverMods difference

Real performance — and real transparency

The current standard is still 28 nm—slower and hotter, with only the highest end units running 12 nm.
Our units start at 12 nm for smooth, lag-free performance (Core & Plus), stepping up to 6 nm in Pro/Max/Flagship for lightning-fast response.

  • spec transparency
  • modern silicon
  • fast boot
  • cool, stable runs
Displays you enjoy looking at

No dim, plasticky panels.
Our Plus / Pro / Max / Flagship use QLED QHD for razor-sharp maps, media, and text.
Our Core tier unit uses a bright, vivid HD IPS display—clear, clean, and easy on the eyes.

  • higher resolution
  • higher brightness
  • premium panel tech
Bigger screen, less bezel, factory-style fit

More screen, minimal bezels, tidy fascia—designed to look like it belongs in your dash.
Controls stay accessible and integration stays clean.

Memory & storage that keep up

Gone are the days when 4 GB of RAM was “top-end.”
Ours start at 4 GB and go up from there, so app switching stays smooth.
Add maps and media with microSD expansion and you’re set for offline trips.

  • more RAM
  • smoother multitasking

FAQs

Will the steering-wheel buttons still work in my Pajero NS/NT/NW?

Yes. The included harness retains SWC on NS, NT and NW series. No extra modules are needed for standard controls.

Does it keep the factory reverse camera?

Where fitted, the factory camera is retained. If your Pajero doesn’t have one, you can add an aftermarket camera and it will integrate cleanly.

How does the screen handle midday sun and cabin heat?

The bright, anti-glare panel is readable at noon, and electronics are selected for Australian heat. It boots reliably after a hot soak.

Is it compatible with the Rockford Acoustic Design system in Exceed?

Yes — the unit is compatible with Rockford Acoustic Design. The factory amp path is retained and fade/balance remain functional.

How hard is the install at home on a GLX?

Allow about 60 minutes with basic tools. The fascia is vehicle-specific and the harness is plug-and-play, so no cutting or soldering is required.

Will it reconnect reliably and work off-grid?

Wireless reconnect is quick via CarLink 2.0. Download offline areas before you leave and navigation continues even through out-of-coverage stretches.
