base 850 upgrades... 850

I swap the radios between our 95 850 and 98 S70 and it can be done
in about 90 seconds -- plug and play. As mentioned, the bezels
are black for the 850 and gray for the S70. (The S70 has a CD player
so it gets swapped into the 850 for long road trips.)

One of our Volvos has the temperature setting climate control and
the other does not. I would not miss the temperature setting
at all since I often have to change the fan speed manually to
keep the car comfortable. In fact, I never use the automatic fan
speed setting and the temperature knob is a twist knob just like
the one in the manual controls. I wouldn't consider it worth the
effort to retrofit.
