I'd probably go with Pioneer, you'll need a install kit to make it look factory.
Look at this guy's setup

2011 Outlander Installed with Katzkin Leather Interior, Pioneer AVIC Z14 & LED Lights - Mitsubishi Forum - Mitsubishi Enthusiast Forums


I would go with the OEM reverse camera, probably regular RCA plug or splice it in for the OEM look.

Go with brand name. Pioneer, Sony, Jensen etc. I have one of these "Fantastic" oem looking chinese know offs in my mazda cx7.

Notrhing but problems, and no support wahtsoever.

Spend the extra $$ and get a brand name.

The Chinese knockoffs will cause you nothing but trouble and you'll end up buying a proper unit within a year when some small part fails and causes the whole thing to be unusable. Ask me how I know.

I have to say I have been using FlyAudio, Caska and now Roadrover machines in my Outie for more than 2 years. Have no problems at all....

You can get good quality made in China head units, only suggestion is do not go for the cheap ones, brands list above are all good.

Go with the Pioneer BH8400 if you want the "flashy style" interface. The Z140 is a more mature look. The BH8400 allows for an additional gps module to be added to it to provide the same maps that come integrated into the z140. Both units will allow for using your iphone and gps with the correct jailbreak hack. I use garmin on my unit quite often. Motion X is not bad either, but uses data on the fly unless you store maps offline.
