Is it possible to retrofit the spaceball gearstick on the new shape V70?
Is there any point? lol
Wouldn't mind the centre armrest with the 'corrugated' blind- can that be retrofitted?
Thanks
Andy

Thanked 0 Times in 0 PostsYes the spaceball can be retrofitted... someone on here has done it before and included a 'step by step', if it wasn't on here it might have been on the VOC, but I'm pretty sure it was here!!

Thanked 1 Time in 1 PostIt's only for looks. It serves no functional purpose. Mine came with it installed from the factory.

Thanked 11 Times in 8 PostsTrue but they do look good! Until you get loads of muck and crumbs and stuff clogging the edges up though. Originally Posted by volvotuning

Forgot I'd posted this- thanks for the replies.
Just got a brodit ipod holder that attaches near to the gear knob gaiter- it won't fit a spaceball by the looks of it.
Still think they look good though!

Thanked 5,021 Times in 4,072 Postswell according to the "how-to" its a simple take the cables off & swop over, my old mans car came with the spaceball & tried to swop with Bonny's as he's not keen on it (is very tight) but the cables were different. Mine is a 2002 & his is a 2003 so whether they changed the cable design then i don't know, but we couldn't swop them over
