Default Will a HU-615 Stereo Head Unit from a S40/V40 work in an S70?

I really like the '01-'04 S40/V40 HU-615 stereo head unit, and was wondering if it is plug-n-play in an S70.

The HU-615 looks like it will fit in the S70 dash opening (correct me if I'm wrong), but will the connections match up?

The stereo will fit, however the connectors are different. You could swap out the connectors, but then the antenna connection is also different.

Thanks for the info.
I think I might try and make the connections work... I'll post a how-to if it works.

If it's too difficult, I have a good SC-816 (the OEM AM/FM/CD/Cassette unit) that I'm looking to sell. It'll look more "stock," as well as not requiring you to hack up your wiring. PM me if interested.
