S80 - 1999 - Trouble Replacing CD Player

Post by pete8475 »

I'm having some trouble replacing the HU-611 CD/casette player that came in my car with another deck I own. The DVD player I'd like to put in is a JVC KD-DV6200. The problem I am having is that all of the 99 S80 wiring harness kits I can find don't match up with what's in my car. The kits have two rectangular plugs, which correspond in size and color to two of the plugs on the back of the HU-611 radio, but the car has one rectangle and one circle plug. Is there a product I can buy to convert the black circle plug to the grey rectangle plug?

So far I have purchased the following:

and the mounting bracket.

I've attached some pics to show what I mean.

Have you contacted Crutchfield? It's been awhile since I've used them, but they sell a lot of installation kits and equipment. The radios and installations kits I've ordered have been top notch, and their phone service was very good. Have not tried them with Volvos yet, though.
