Advice/help wanted: Volvo P80 V70 to (old) Alpine head unit loom adaptor

AshDVS

I'm not much of a car-audiophile but a long time ago I did dabble in it.

I bought this Alpine MDM-7741R Minidisc head unit new back in 2001 and had it (and a CD stacker) in my 240.

Given the current V70 project I'm going to start on shortly is from the same era, I'd like to use this head unit in the V70.

Is there an loom adaptor available off the shelf that I can use?

Pics below for reference -

Next question...

Is there an SD card/reader player that will interface via the CD stacker input in the back of the head unit?

If such a thing exists, I'd be keen to use it. Otherwise, I'll run the stacker that I have here.

Thanks in advance for any input/thoughts you may have.

Don't know how to do a link on the phone so that's a screen shot . It plugs into the autochanger on the head unit for the sd etc

Not too sure if that particular one will fit a 90s H U though , worth a look

Excellent! Thanks so much!

What about a harness/loom adaptor?

I'm not sure on that , sorry mate .

When I took out the after market hu in mine when I bought it someone had what looks like an adaptor that goes to the amp . And another plug for the power .

When I done mine I took the amp and wiring out and put new fresh wires in . Still have all the og stuff just incase i decide to put it all back in

I'd start looking for something starting with what model unit it is to the car , something should come up ?

Probably just need an ISO adaptor to suit alpine 16pin square

Then get a Volvo to ISO adaptor for p80.

Repco keep/can get aeropro brand

Ex850R

Or keep STD HU and run a full android or CarPlay unit , amp or two , do it properly with steering wheel control and Bluetooth. All that other stuff is just fudging about , never found the Yatour to much chop in my car/s compared to Bluetooth off the android phone.

No sd card though..

Mini Disc was a great technology. Still have mine somewhere

Above is everything I used to plug and play a Pioneer head unit into p80 and run the Pioneer thru the factory amp and speakers.

Thanks @hamsandwich very much appreciated.

Thanks again. Ordered all three.

Will look at the SD card reader rather than the stacker once I've swapped in a dash that isnt beige.

Worst case, the stacker is still here too.
