volvo equipment is made by alpine

so you would need an interface of some kind

i don't know if they are available, but a good specialist should be able to tell/help you

failing that get hold of a genuine volvo item (no interface and c£100), or an alpine unit and a suitable interface

or af course change the head unit for a sony one :)

is your radio a hu mate cause ifit is you can only get it from dealer and they have to fit as my 2001 s80 had hu and autosounds said something about it being a dealer only. assked dealer and apparentley they have to put on computer. easier and cheaper to change head unit hope this helps.ps if its the sc head unit you can get interface for alpine only cd changer and autosounds quoted me £70ish for it
