Well, in sticking with Volvo OEM radios you've gone from one frying pan to the other... but at least the price was right. I just replaced the radio in the kids' 240 but that was in Connecticut and I just moved to Arizona, and I don't have the color codes here.

What I can tell you is that the DIN output goes to what is laughingly called an "amp" which drives rear speakers, which you likely don't have.


I hope others can identify the colored leads, but if you're impatient you can try this - I'm pretty sure the white and white/yellow are left front speaker, and there should be a gray as well as gray/green for the right front speaker. Black should be ground. Blue is a power antenna lead, so you can tape it and ignore it. Orange should be power, probably the switched. Red/green is probably the constant power. You should also have a brown lead for illumination.
