Huge thanks and kudos to JRL for finding the right code.

Thanks for the feedback guys; I have PM'd JRL. Here's hoping..!

I recently purchased an SC-815 headunit for my 850 on eBay (US), though I am in the UK. I called my dealer with the VIN number of the car (a V70) it came out of, but as this is a US car, he wasn't able to get the unlock code on his computer. Are there any US owners here who had their radio unlocked ...

Hi JRL,

I have sent you a PM, but it seems stuck in my outbox; let me know if you haven't received it.

So I won't be able to simply unplug my existing leads and plug them into the SC-815?

Thanks for the response.

thanks for the tips; I have just purchased a Wheelskin, so now I just have to wait for it to cross the pond to the UK.

The leather on my steering wheel has worn through; I would like to replace it with another leather wheel and I'm wondering whether all 850 steering wheels came with leather, in case I buy one unseen.

Many thanks!

I am keen to replace my (single din) CR-905 radio/tape with a double din unit to include a CD player. All the CD/tape Volvo units I have seen are grey, which wouldn't match my dash. Did Volvo make a model in black?

many thanks

There should be a signal booster behind the trim panel. I think that would be where the co-ax runs to. Also check the filament in the glass. There may be a small break in it, as happens with the filament for the heated rear window. This can be repaired. http://www.speeding.co.uk/acatalog/PermaPoxy_...
