Yes, that eBay part is a similar part with the same part number, but at $129 the pricing is predatory - I was hoping to find something a little less costly from which I could remove the LCD display from the ...

WTB Volvo Part # 31268055 (C30 C70 S40 V50 Infotainment Display)
This is the green LCD screen and interface that displays the radio, the Climate system, and the car configuration menus.
My 2010 v50 has an LCD screen that has started to show orange spiderwebs, and that means that it is doomed.

Microsoft Broke "Internet Explorer Compatibility" in Edge - VIDA Impact
