C70 Stock Head Unit Replacement C70

Hey All,

The SC-901 Head Unit in my '99 C70 has finally decided to quit playing CD's altogether. After doing a little bit of research on replacement aftermarket stereos (Swedespeed, Bay 13, etc.), I'm still confused whether or not it can be done cheaply. Any insight on this issue? Will a Double DIN Unit fit with a proper wiring harness?

Is there a harness out there that can function with the prologic encoder?

Will a unit with a pro-logic encoder work with the 12-speaker system?

Any insight into this is much appreciated.


Thanks for everything,

C70 Stock Head Unit Replacement C70

Resolved with a 6CD Changer and my iPod. I got together with a buddy of mine who does mobile A/V and after pulling the majority of the stock system out we realized it was going to be too much of a hassle and $$$.
