Hi everyone, first time Volvo owner here. Recently bought a Japanese import 2010 V50 and I'm planning on replacing the upper dash mounted Japanese gps/head unit and wondering if there's any issues or things I should be aware of doing it. The AC and radio all go through the separate head unit on the waterfall, and the upper unit has its own speakers so seems to be entirely separate. As it cant have its language changed I'm planning on removing it and replacing it with a newer unit with android car play and other more useful things. Are there any glaring issues I'm going to run into or should be aware of? The Carrozzeria also has a tv and DVD player unit and if possible I'd just remove them as well to free up glovebox space.

 

Did you ever manage to sort this. I've just bought one and have the same issue.
