Hi have an '81 242DL and have had the original analog and digital/cassette units in both places. However, it's been a few years since I've had any radio in the car. I got tire of their poor reliability and I don't like the looks of after market units. Anyway I went to an mp3 player with AM radio, 20 watt amp, and two good door speakers.

You might look at the original Volvo parts manual that has exploded parts diagrams at http://www.volvotips.com/. See the right side bar about half way down the page under Volvo Parts Books. The compartment at the bottom has groves for mounting the radio so you only need a face plate. There is the wiring harness to deal with also.
