I was thinking of doing the same thing in my XC90 2008 until the shop quoted me 1500.00 Canadian to do it. It seems it is not a simple swap.

have a look on YouTube there's a couple of decent videos on this but essentially the amplifier is bypassed and the original controls have to be retained but the videos show all the steps that need to be done so well worth a look

sorry I should have said the original controls need to be left connected and tucked out of the way
