Hello, I own a 2000 volvo s80 T6 with 213k miles on it. previously i had a 1996 850 but wrecked it. I'm not too familar with volvos since im more of a bmw guy, i just have a few questions about them. First, can the door panels and seats from newer models s80s (2003-2005) fit in a 2000? Secondly, I've noticed my climate control buttons and ***** doesnt have lights on them, i was wondering was that only on newer s80s and s60s. Third, can a dash cluster from a 2006 s80 fit in the 2000? And lastly, what's a good aftermarket touch screen radio for these vehicles within a reasonable price range.

 

Normally when it comes to interchange options (ie between years/models) you can start with a web site like car-parts.com (which uses the same database most recycle yards use). You'll see that the 1999-2004 seats and doors are on the interchange list for S80s. For your radio, most Volvo's from 94 to 04 are "double DIN" so you can shop either for that size or a single DIN and install a spacer or drawer. There are many brands out there so the price will mostly be based on features (ie NAV? MP3 input? bluetooth? power?). Poke around crutchfield.com or Amazon and you will see plenty of choices from $100 to $200. My suggestion would be to pick your features and set your budget first, then shop around online and visit some local installers or stores to view the item in person.
