10" Wireless CarPlay for the Mitsubishi Lancer Without Steering Wheel Controls Clean Direct Swap, Park Brake Required

Product Overview

The Aerpro AMDMB24 is a complete head unit upgrade kit for the Mitsubishi Lancer CJ (2007–2013) in variants without factory steering wheel controls. It is a clean direct unit swap, replacing the factory head unit with a 10" capacitive touchscreen at 1024x600 resolution via the AM1005D multimedia receiver adding wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, built-in DAB+ digital radio, and Bluetooth V5.

As the no-SWC version of the Lancer CJ kit, no SWC retention hardware is included or required. All vehicle feature retention fields are N/A for this configuration, with the exception of AUX input which is explicitly not retained. The kit includes only the essentials: AM1005D multimedia receiver, black facia kit, wiring harness, and a 720P AHD universal rear camera.

Features & Benefits

• No SWC variants only — specifically for Lancer CJ (2007–2013) models not fitted with factory steering wheel controls; for SWC-equipped variants use the AMDMB4 (2007–2010) or AMDMB5 (2010–2017)
• Park brake wire connection required — Apple CarPlay and Android Auto will not activate unless the park brake wire is correctly connected to the park brake during installation
• Simple kit contents — without the SWC harness, camera retention adaptor, or USB retention adaptor of the SWC variants, this is a compact, straightforward installation kit
• Black vehicle-specific facia kit — matched to the Lancer CJ interior trim
• 10" capacitive touchscreen at 1024x600 resolution — significantly larger than the factory Lancer display; the same 10" AM1005D format used across the Lancer SWC kits
• Wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto — connect over Wi-Fi for maps, music, calls, and messages; wired USB also supported for simultaneous phone charging
• Built-in DAB+ digital radio — digital audio clarity and expanded station access; AM/FM with RDS, 18 FM and 12 AM presets included
• Bluetooth V5 with HD Voice — hands-free calling, audio streaming, and phonebook access; internal and external microphone included
• 720P AHD universal rear camera included — Sony 225 1/3" CMOS sensor, 150-degree lens; adds reversing visibility to the Lancer
• 4 x 50W max output with 5CH 4V RCA preouts — supports external amplifier integration via front/rear/sub preamp channels
• 13-band EQ and time alignment — 6 preset EQ modes plus 2 custom slots

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this suit Lancer models with factory steering wheel controls?

No — the AMDMB24 is for Lancer CJ (2007–2013) models without factory SWC only. For SWC-equipped Lancer CJ variants, use the AMDMB4 (2007–2010) or AMDMB5 (2010–2017) depending on your specific model year.

What is the difference between the AMDMB24 and the AMDMB4 or AMDMB5?

The AMDMB4 and AMDMB5 are for Lancer CJ models with factory SWC and retain SWC (including the phone button) and AUX input as standard. The AMDMB24 is for models without SWC — no retention hardware is included and there are no factory features carried over. All three use the same 10" AM1005D.

Why is AUX listed as "Not retained" rather than N/A?

The supplier specification sheet explicitly lists AUX input as "No" for the AMDMB24 rather than N/A. Unlike the factory reverse camera and USB fields (where N/A means the vehicle is not equipped), the AUX "No" designation indicates the AUX signal is not carried over through this kit's wiring harness.

Does the park brake wire need to be connected?

Yes — the AM1005D head unit includes a safety interlock requiring the park brake wire to be connected to the actual park brake. Without this connection, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto will not activate. This is a design requirement of the head unit, consistent across all Aerpro kits that carry this requirement.

Is this the correct kit for any 2007-2013 Lancer without SWC?

For the CJ generation (2007–2013) without SWC, yes. If you are unsure whether your Lancer is the CJ generation or whether it has SWC, use the Aerpro What Fits Your Car Guide to confirm before purchasing.
