Volvo C70 Head unit

[David Kelleher]

Hello everyone. I have just bought a 2009 C70 SE 2.0 D and I am loving it
I am interested in upgrading the stereo in the car. As far as I can tell I cant connect my phone to the stereo and use it as a hands free kit.

Although having said that there is a little rectangular box about the size of a matchbox and there appears to be a microphone above the rear view mirror but although my phone will see it it wont pair to it.

Now, on my centre console there is a blanked off button, and when I look at pictures online that button says phone on it.

So I was wondering if i would need to replace the head unit and the buttons on the console, or just the buttons on the console.

I plan on having this car for many years so it would be worth wile upgrading it to run my phone via bluetooth to the head unit.

Any advice on what I need to do to achieve this would be great

Thanks


David
