1997 V70 with SC-802 - upgrade options ?

I have just bought the above with the SC-802 and was looking for some parts to upgrade the radio/cassette to a CD player.

I guess there is possibly a plug-in multi-changer but I really wanted a single CD player in the dash.

Can anyone tell me what units will simply swap with the SC-802 and what to look for if there are several ?

Or if anyone has e.g. a SC-805 for sale please let me know and the price ....

Thanks,

Nick

Hi Arnold

Thanks for the reply - are you confirming that the SC-805 will be a straight swap, both mechanically and electrically ?

Thanks,

Nick

Hi Nick, take a look at this link, it shows a SC-816 from the seller's add "is dark gray and was designed for All S70 models, but will also fit Volvo

960 Series 1994-1997, Volvo 850 1993-1997 and Volvo S90 1998 only." I have a 2000 V70 T5, and this is the radio I have.

Make sure when you buy a used 816 (excellent, got one in my V70) that you get the code.

Hi Guys, Thanks for the link and the tip on getting the code - I am a little bit concerned about a US market set as I am not sure if the spec is compatible with UK radio channel spacings (on AM) or other specs I don't even know about. I will make some enquiries Thanks again,

Nick
