Does anyone know if I can plug my volvo sub into another P2 without any extra work?

I have the HU-803 as does the other car.

Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Hi Tim

I am not sure all the cars come with the wiring pre-fitted for the sub. You can buy the harness from the dealers but, you may have this anyhow as part of the sub kit if you bought it as a kit.

On the software, you wiil need this on a car that is 2005 or newer. The older ones should just plug and play.

Hope this helps

My V70 came with one in the boot, sounds great.

Fitting instructions here (http://vccs.volvocars.se/accessories/ii/PDFStream.asp?PDFFileName=MA30664381[en-GB].pdf)


Edit: Sorry you know that already as you have it in your other car!!!
As Burchi has said you'll need the harness- the instructions show you what to do, so still useful.

Thanks v much folks folks. As always good info.

I was out in an '02 v70D5 today and I hate to report it was feckin good!

It had the premuim sound system same as mine but no sub. So was going to keep a hold of it if I sold the car.
