CAC F9MT25K5 – 9" Triton MN Fascia Kit (GL Base Model)

Simple headunit upgrade for your base-spec MN Triton work ute.

Product Overview

The Car Audio Connect F9MT25K5 fascia kit is engineered specifically for 2009-2014 Mitsubishi Triton MN models in GL trim level, the base specification commonly used as entry-level work vehicles, fleet transport, and farm utes. This straightforward installation solution provides the physical and electrical interface needed to mount modern 9-inch trapezoid headunits in place of the factory radio system while maintaining a clean, finished appearance with the included pocket case for practical storage.

Designed as a direct-fit replacement fascia with integrated wiring harness, this kit delivers the essential components for aftermarket headunit installation without unnecessary complexity. The included wiring harness connects directly to your Triton MN GL's factory radio connector, providing power, speaker connections, and antenna feed without cutting or splicing factory circuits. The pocket case fills the remaining dash space below the headunit, offering convenient storage for work permits, service records, hand tools, or small equipment. Compatible with premium brands including Alpine, Pioneer, Kenwood, and Nakamichi, this fascia brings Bluetooth connectivity, USB playback, and modern audio features to your base-spec MN Triton while maintaining the utilitarian simplicity these reliable work vehicles are known for.

Features & Benefits

Direct Factory Wiring Integration – The included wiring harness connects directly to your Triton MN GL's factory radio connector, providing power, speaker connections, and antenna feed without cutting or splicing factory wiring. This preserves the integrity of your vehicle's electrical system and simplifies future modifications or warranty considerations.

Practical Pocket Case Included – The integrated pocket case fills the space below the 9-inch headunit, providing functional storage for work documents, hand tools, permits, or small equipment while maintaining a clean, finished dashboard appearance. This practical addition suits the work-focused nature of base GL models used in trades, farming, and commercial applications.

GL Base Model Specific – Purpose-designed exclusively for the GL trim level, the most basic and widely-used specification in commercial and agricultural applications. This focused approach ensures precise fitment for the entry-level dash configuration without paying for unused feature retention components.

OEM-Quality Construction – Precision-molded fascia panel matches your Triton MN's interior trim profile, delivering a factory-integrated appearance that avoids the aftermarket "add-on" look. The durable ABS construction withstands the rigors of daily work use, temperature extremes, and the vibration common to light commercial vehicles.

Verified Headunit Compatibility – Tested and confirmed to work with Alpine's iLX series, Pioneer's DMH range, Kenwood's DMX flagship models, and Nakamichi's Android systems, plus quality aftermarket 9-inch Android headunits using the trapezoid form factor. Brings modern connectivity including Bluetooth hands-free, USB playback, and auxiliary input to your work vehicle without complexity.

Cost-Effective Upgrade Path – Simplified specification without unused steering wheel control or camera retention components makes this kit the most cost-effective upgrade solution for base GL models that weren't factory-equipped with these features, keeping upgrade costs appropriate to the vehicle's specification.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this include steering wheel control retention?

No, GL base trim Triton MN models (2009-2014) were not equipped with factory steering wheel controls from the manufacturer. This kit provides basic audio integration only, matching the original base vehicle specification and keeping costs appropriate.

What's the difference between GL and GL-R models?

GL is the base specification, while GL-R is a higher trim with additional features. This kit is designed specifically for base GL models. For GL-R models, refer to F9MT25K3 (Dash 1) or F9MT25K4 (Dash 2) depending on your dash configuration.

Can I add a reverse camera with this kit?

This kit does not include camera retention components as GL base models were not factory-equipped with reverse cameras. However, aftermarket reverse cameras can be added separately and connected directly to compatible 9-inch headunits that support camera inputs.

What is the pocket case for?

The pocket case fills the remaining dash space below the 9-inch headunit, providing practical storage while maintaining a finished appearance. It's ideal for storing work permits, tools, service records, or small equipment in easy reach during work operations.

Will my factory speakers work with new headunits?

Yes, the included wiring harness connects to your factory speaker wiring. Audio quality and volume will depend on your aftermarket headunit's amplifier output and the condition of your factory speakers, which are basic specification in GL base models.
