Looking to rip out the original unit in favour of something better, cant decide if im going to stick a double din unit in there or not. Iv seen a single din storage tray/cup holder combo that looks fairly oe ish. Tempted by a double din satnav jobby but cant decide...

Post a pic of your arrangement

The radio is now a Kenwood, but that's all that's changed

Are those cupholder/storage units any good? I'm curious as to whether they'd encroach on the gearstick.

That looks almost identical to the one i was looking at.

Item no. 301518498440

Going to go down this route i think as i have a spare kenwood unit in the garage somewhere.

Cheers druid

somebody mentioned on the forum,that if you bought one with the sat nav,ie this 1205 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VOLVO-CD-P...item487b69f464 you would be looking down at it.of course its best to use a sat nav in an ideal spot on the windscreen

Since swapped the extra cig socket for a surface mounted USB charger from a motorbike. That and volt meter powered off radio switched supply.

Wharfedale MP3/CD/FM headset.

Not a problem with the way i have them, but radio on top is a no-no!
If you have very fat hands you might catch them!
