Aftermarket unit in place of SC-816? V70-XC70 1998

Hi,

Looks like I need to buy a replacement radio for the SC-816 unit in my V70. A refurbished unit goes for around $180 from local dealers.

Has anyone tried putting in an aftermarket unit in place of the SC-816? I assume there is no cable adapter available to prevent cutting into the existing wiring. What about mounting, anything (including DVD units) that would actually fit the slot? Finally, I bought the Volvo (Alpine?) 6-disc CD changer; it would be nice if I can continue using it.

Thanks for any information anyone has.
