Setting CD Changer angle as part of installing. S70 1998

My Cd Changer install project has gone OK. Before I bolt it up in place, I noticed a small plate on one side that had a series of holes in the side going from 0 to 90 degrees. I dimly remember something about adjusting the angle of install depending if the deck was installed facing up or out or at some angle in between.

There is also a single screw holding the plate with all the hose into the case.

How do I set this?

Regards

Woody

Just checked mine (sorry it took me all weekend). I see an "H" and "V" at either end of the holes. The detent gets adjusted accordingly. The adjustment is for the shock suppression dampers inside the unit. In my experience, it makes a big difference having these adjusted correctly.

YMMV, it may be worth noting that not all these Volvo cd changers are created equal. Mine's a 1994 build. The 2000 model in my mothers car is different...

Will,

Thanks. Mine was already set as I needed it to be. Now all I have to do is figure out how to bolt it up under the package shelf in the trunk with the door facing the front of the car. the CD player is wider than the bottom of the compartment is on the underside.

I will figure out some kind of Rube Goldberg arrangement!

Regards

Woody
