Default Hardwiring GPS/Satellite/Radar

I did search on this one- and read a bunch of posts and saw a few pictures as well. Unfortubnately most of what I ended up reading/saw was for newer different Volvo models.

I have a 2000 c70 and need to hardwire a few different devices. I went to the car to figure out how to accomplish this and found the fuse box under the hood. I am stumped now!

Anybody know where to find a decent +/- sources that is on a fuse/circuit that can handle a little extra draw?

Thanks

btw

planning on satellite above the rearview-right side, radar above the rearview left side, satellite on dash as farleft as possible.
thx

I just realized there is a 12v DC cig lighter for passengers in the rear. Anyone know how to pull apart the console to get access?

Thanks

To remove the center console you need to remove the rear seat to gain access to the rear screws in the console.
Then there is 2 screws under the armrest lid.
Then it will slide up and out.

Thanks a lot Tech.

How hard is it to get the back set out?

Some just pull straight up.
Others you have to feel from the front and push in a square button in about the middle of that side(Pass/drivers)
