Before I go buying something which doesnt fit from e-bay , can someone tell me which volvo headunits will "plug and Play" on a 1998 C70 T5 with the amplified speaker system installed. Thanks in advance.

All the 850,V,S,C70 Radio's should fit AFAIK. The only ones that won't are the ones with the shaped facia.

The SC-901 has no amplifier built in therefore you get the one in the boot (or under the chair) the others are all pre-amped and therefore prob wont be plug and play. I will have an SC-901 up for grabs soon (once I get my arse in gear and swap over the headunits that is) :D

Didn't the 850R have a small amp behind the dash? That had a tape deck and boot changer i think. I would have thought you'd go either straight from the head unit to the cars plugs,or to an amp first then the car. Either way i think if you've got the right Volvo leads it's plug and play. EDIT: I'll soon let you know as i've just bought an amp and leads from E Bay. It'll either work or end up in the for sale section :D
