Description
9" Wireless CarPlay for the Mitsubishi Triton and Challenger Full SWC, USB, and AUX Retention in One Kit
Product Overview
The Aerpro AMDMB26 is a complete head unit upgrade kit for the Mitsubishi Triton MN GL, GLX, and GLX-R (2015) and the Challenger PC (2013–2015). It replaces the factory unit with a 9" capacitive touchscreen at 1024x600 resolution, adding wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, built-in DAB+ digital radio, and Bluetooth V5 while retaining steering wheel controls (including the phone button), factory USB input, and factory AUX input where equipped.
The kit includes the AM905D multimedia receiver, a black vehicle-specific facia kit, SWC interface harness, SWC patch lead, USB retention adaptor, and a 720P AHD universal rear camera. Neither the Triton nor Challenger comes factory-equipped with a reverse camera, so no camera retention adaptor is required the included 720P AHD camera adds reversing visibility fresh.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Triton and Challenger variants does this kit suit?
The AMDMB26 suits the Mitsubishi Triton MN GL, GLX, and GLX-R (2015) and the Challenger PC (2013–2015). Use the Aerpro What Fits Your Car Guide to verify your specific build before purchasing.
Why is the top display not retained on the GLX-R and Challenger?
The secondary top display (instrument cluster display) on the Triton GLX-R and Challenger is not compatible with the AMDMB26 installation. Triton GL and GLX variants do not have this limitation. Check your variant before purchasing if top display retention is important to you.
Why does the park brake wire need to be connected?
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on this head unit require the park brake wire to be connected to the actual park brake. Without this connection, both CarPlay and Android Auto will not activate. This is a safety interlock built into the AM905D head unit.
Are the factory USB and AUX inputs retained?
Yes, if your vehicle is equipped with them. The USB input is retained via the included USB retention adaptor using the head unit's rear USB port. The AUX input is retained via the head unit's RCA AUX input on vehicles that have it fitted.
Does the Triton or Challenger have a factory reverse camera to retain?
No — neither the Triton MN nor the Challenger PC is factory-equipped with a reverse camera. The kit includes a 720P AHD universal rear camera to add reversing visibility from scratch.
