Re: Volvo XC90 MY2009 BPM (Bluetooth Phone Module) integration

After Install. You would need to get Yagger to do some reprogramming. He is in California buy if you have a DiCE unit and the two of you can setup a time he can do the programing over the internet.

Yagger might have a commercial customer in Germany that you can take it to.
