ben quoted £52 for the kit for the V70 to install a 2 din stereo.
seems a bit steep to me, but it's the genuine volvo part number
8698763
from Snows in Winchester.
Is this a good price?

I wouldn't trust a snows as far as I could comfortably fart a hedgehog.
It's about 20 quid from halfrauds (ordered-in) or about a tenner from fleabay.

i bought the Autoleads one from ebay, colour match is actually better than the genuine Volvo one i've got now
William A Lewis in Shrewsbury did mine for £22 + Vat. Where have they got £52 from?! Be careful on the colour, there are two part numbers to cover the colour change pre-dashboard facelift. There's the satin black one and the anthracite one. Can't remember which is which but I ended up with the Anthracite on my satin black dash! I'd already 'doctored' it so I couldn't take it back. Only noticed the next day in the daylight as I'd done the install in the dark. Ask for the double din facia for the police spec cars as this is what it's intended for. There's a bit of a divider to turn it into 2 x single din, which can easilly be cut out leaving a proper double din fascia.
I suspect 2000-20004 pre-facelift is anthracite
and 2004> is satin black?
Anyone confirm?
I'm finding it hard to find one on ebay for 2000-2004 - all of them seem to be bloomin black

I can't find one of these online for love nor, literally, money.
Have asked snows if they will lower their price to the same as the shrewsbury example above. waiting to see what they come back with.
this shouldn't be so hard!
there are loads online for 2004+ but none i can see for 2000-2004

ended up ordering from volvo in Swansea via that Rufe guy. Got the kit for £47.
Spoke direct to autoleads and connects 2. AL do a faascia, but no one sells it and they don't sell direct, but I could order from Halfords!!!!!
Connects2 no longer do one at all.
Volvo seems to be the only option

Hi!
New to the forum. Have been having problems with the HU803 unit in my '03 V70, so am planning to replace with either a double or single din aftermarket unit. How do you find the unit you fitted. I have heard mixed reviews of them in the past, hence my question.
Regards
