Fascia Adaptor

This adaptor will convert the non din-sized aperture left after removing the factory stereo to a din size ready for head unit installation. The high quality finish, colour and texture are designed specifically to maintain the original look of your vehicles interior.

Steering Control Adaptor

A stalk/steering wheel control adaptor enables you to utilise the original factory remote audio (whether built onto steering wheel or fitted on a stalk next to the steering wheel) with an aftermarket unit. 

Aerial Adaptor

An Aerial Adaptor is needed when replacing the original factory fitted head unit with an aftermarket head unit.  

ONLY SUITABLE FOR MODELS WITH AMPLIFIED SOUND SYSTEMS, FOR NON-AMPLIFIED SYSTEMS PLEASE USE FK-550

Does not retain original display showing any car settings, temperature and fan speed on climate system.

FACIA MODIFICATION REQUIRED

The original facia panel will need to be cut (Please see picture below) We recommend this should be done by a professional car audio technician/ installer

On amplified sound systems, you will need to unplug the original OEM amplifier and connect to the supplied amplifier bypass cable. It will power all the speakers apart from centre channel speakers (usually found on Dynaudio Sound Systems)

High Performance/ Premium Sound Systems Examples

All Volvo C30/C70/S40 and V50 car models from 2004-2012 had 3 different sound systems:

Performance Sound (NON-AMPLIFIED)

This was fitted as the standard sound system for most of these Volvo Models. Although it had a couple of variations in its model years, it typically consisted of a standard 6 or 8 speaker set up system

High Performance Sound (Amplified)

This was fitted both as standard on Higher Spec Volvo models and as an optional upgrade. An easy way to tell if your vehicle is fitted with this system is when the radio powers up it will show on the radio display as 'HIGH PERFORMANCE SOUND'

Premium Sound (Amplified) Either DYNAUDIO or DOLBY PRO LOGIC II

This was fitted as an optional upgrade. An easy way to tell if your vehicle is fitted with this system is when the radio powers up it will show on the radio display as PREMIUM SOUND' This sound system is easier to identify as their will usually be a DYNAUDIO badge on some of the sound equipment. For E.G. On top of the centre speaker above the radio (Centre Dashboard)

Below are some examples of the sound systems installed on C30 and C70 (2007-2013) car models

Car Audio Fitting Accessories are sold with limited instructions. Some knowledge of car audio installation is helpful, as in some rare case "modification" is necessary.
