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

Features you’ll use

2013-2021 Mitsubishi Outlander Head Unit Kit

Factory look, sorted

This kit uses a vehicle-specific fascia to suit 2013–2021 Outlander cabins, landing a clean, factory-style look. Mounting points line up and clips seat firmly for a rattle-free result. Steering-wheel controls remain supported and the factory reverse camera is retained where fitted. The goal: an easy, tidy swap that just works.
  • Factory-style fascia
  • Suits ZJ/ZK/ZL
  • SWC retained
  • Camera supported

Better than stock

Day-to-day clarity first. DSP/EQ tuning helps speech and podcasts cut through, with per-channel time alignment and clean pre-outs if you add an amp or sub later. Bluetooth call quality is solid. If your Outlander has the Rockford Fosgate amplified system, this kit plays nice and preserves an upgrade path.
  • DSP/EQ tuning
  • Time alignment
  • Clean amp path
  • Clear calls

Wireless by default

Hop in and it reconnects wirelessly by default, so your phone can stay in a pocket. Use voice on the wheel to call, reply, or set the next destination in Google Maps. Spotify control is quick, and the interface stays responsive when you're parking, refuelling, or doing school runs between errands.
  • Wireless by default
  • Google Maps ready
  • Spotify with voice
  • Hands stay free

Offline when you need

Reception isn't guaranteed. Download map areas for your usual region so guidance works when coverage dips on the way to sport or shops. If you want simple vehicle data, pair an inexpensive OBD2 adapter and use Torque for temps and basic codes—handy for peace of mind before a service.
  • Download offline areas
  • Guidance without signal
  • Torque for basics
  • Quick check before service

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

About 60 minutes with basic tools. Test power, audio and camera before re-clipping the fascia.
