all

I purchased my first Volvo on Friday this week and I absolutely love it it’s a Volvo XC 60 R design 2011 D5 2.4 Manual 6 speed

There’s a few small issues but nothing of time can’t sort

Only thing that’s annoying is it was advertised as premium pack but in getting home - 3hr drive away from the garage .

It’s not a premium pack doesn’t have sat nav or even Bluetooth.

So I’ve been looking at other dash install options I’ve found a 2016 xc60 being broken and it’s got the centre console with screen and nav unit etc

Is this possible to swap over into mine

Probably not worth the cost as lots of programming would be need better off with a GROM Bluetooth adapter if available for the head unit in your car.

Reject it, as not as advertised.

Sounds like you would be trying to retro fit a Sensus based system into a pre-Sensus car - forget it.

As has been said you are best rejecting it - there are plenty of high spec XC60's around in good condition if you are prepared to travel 3 hours.

You can fit a Bluetooth kit like a Parrot or Bury but that causes problems as is mutes the reversing sensors when you are on a call.

Or you could get a Pure kit to give you DAB and BT calls, but it only works when it's on....

Better (and probably cheaper) just to get a car with all the kit on in the first place than try and modify one.
