Xc90 calipers are m14 bolt mounting hence the question on if you will need to re-drill the uprights as most volvo caliper bolts are m12

S60 mounting bolts are M14x40 so should be good to go.

Anyone used one of these units yet?

Will probably pull the trigger on one and give it a go. I have to pull most of that stuff out to do the shifter update anyway.

    A few peeps are doing this right now on the Fbook Volvo pages.

    I have considered it too but lean towards fitting a tablet as I want big screen!

    A Bluetooth attached phone utilises steering control for volume and track skip the tablet will do the same , that's all the interaction I need. If I can get any more functionality using the Android car app on the tablet I'd be happy. (Reviews say the Android app is way better than apple)

    Guy with an S80 on Fbook selling his says the touch screen function did not work, no details on brand.

    UK has sellers of the units too.

    I have used Android HU in the past as an alternative but there is no evidence that the existing Volvo OEM display will be transfered to the new HU from what I have read.

    Replacement TFT has been purchased, just need to review a few more photos on some gear shifter mechs to see which is the better to purchase.

    No more scrapping of metal on metal.

    Gave the paint a once over and hit it with a sealer.

      With the autonomous braking ( if you have it) and keep distance warning system it uses the rear brakes so you go through more rears than fronts! Keep the distance warning/braking to minimums and dont get up their arse you will keep the rears good , thats why Volvo brakes for rear are good , they last a bit longer....

      Needs more black mirror covers and de chrome......You can buy new black chrome strips from VOLVO.

      More progress. I still have to run two wires down to the obd port for fuel and gear position but otherwise all good.

      Less nice is a CEL for the P0420 for the CAT but will deal with that later.

      Replace rear o2 with a resistor?

      I reckon my cat is stuffed up, stinks after giving it the berries but I've not had a CEL at all.

      10 days later

      336mm brakes fitted up. XC90 caliper mounts are plug and play.
