What is going on?
I sourced a switch for the trip computer for the S70 after Bob Noble (thanks Bob) pointed out that all I needed was all ready in place and just needed the switch. No worries, came in under 70 bucks AUS, but software download was going to be in the order of ~500 AUS.
Anyway around this "costly" addition?
Cheers

Hi, Hammo - - -
When this "activation" issue was first floated on the NG several years ago. I don't remember anyone raising the issue of computer programming being required. I think that the Dealers are just hung up on the need to tie in to the Great Computer in the Sky in Sweden. Before models other than all S80's, all S60's and the S/V70's and 40's after 2000(?), this was a non-issue. It's only the models loaded with microprocessors that swing this way.
Surely someone out there with a memory younger than mine will recollect just what was required to effect this project . . .
