CD/Cassette Removal V70-XC70 2001

I was the one who posted about the pencil holder. These were standard on '01 and beyond. You have to stick something slim but that won't scratch into the side of the pencil holder, between it and the side panel and pop it out. Then you'll see how the radio comes out. If your car doesn't have the pencil holder it should still have a small slim panel right under the HU radio that will pop out in the same way.

HU and SC...hmmm...if you're talking about putting an older radio into an '01 or later car, hate to tell you this, but I don't think they are compatible...they aren't even shaped the same and I don't think the wiring is compatible either. Put them side by side and see what I mean. An HU for an HU is fine or SC for an SC, but not HU for SC or SC for HU.
