Volvo XC70, Volvo V40, Volvo S60, Volvo V70 and Volvo S40 2005-2009 - OEM Style Android 15 screen upgrade
The 2005 facelift gave these cars a calmer dashboard and a double-DIN radio that still reads one line of amber text at a time. The HB/HV7145 puts an 8-inch Android 15 touchscreen into that opening and leaves the climate dials, the vents and the trim exactly where Volvo left them.
Between 2005 and 2009 Volvo sold the S40, S60, V40, V70 and XC70 with a double-DIN radio in the centre stack and climate panel underneath. The HB/HV7145 replaces that radio. Your vents, your trim and your dials don't move.
| Model | Vehicle | Model years |
|---|---|---|
| HB/HV7145 | S40, S60, V40, V70, XC70 | 2005-2009 |
Part of this run came with the standard radio and an internal amplifier, and part with the Premium Sound setup that put a separate amplifier under a front seat. That difference decides which leads go in the box, so it's what we ask first.
Order the Volvo XC70 2005-2009 Car Multimedia Player and the fascia, the rows of hard keys and the two rotary knobs arrive with it, already cut for the aperture. If you'd rather the dashboard kept reading as factory, ask for the Volvo XC70 2005-2009 OEM Style Car Radio and not a universal shell with an adapter ring.
Unsure which audio package your car came with? Send a photo of the connector stack with the year, and we'll sort it out before anything ships.
Out goes a vacuum-fluorescent display showing one line of amber text at a time, along with a CD slot you stopped using years ago. In comes an 8-inch capacitive screen that answers to your finger and puts the map in your eyeline.
That's the Volvo S60 2007 Wireless CarPlay Retrofit owners keep asking me about. Your phone does the work and the screen stops being a relic. A Volvo XC70 2005-2009 OEM Style Car Radio keeps the factory middle of your dashboard; this keeps it and adds the screen.
We'll walk you through the interface family behind this panel.
Playback stays on this page. Watch on YouTube if your network blocks embeds.
Three routes into one of these dashboards, and only one ends with a panel cut for the aperture. Ask for a Volvo V70 2006 Android 15 Head Unit and the fascia comes with it.
| Comparing | Keeping the factory radio | A marketplace listing | HB/HV7145 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Display | One line of amber text | Size varies; fitment left to you | 8-inch touchscreen in an OEM Style face |
| Phone | A cradle stuck on the dash | CarPlay through a separate adapter | Wireless CarPlay and Android Auto built in |
| Navigation | Only on cars ordered with it | Depends which app you install | Android 15 with 4G LTE and Wi-Fi |
| Audio and fit | Factory amplifier and changer as built | Amplifier handling left unclear | Built-in DSP, RCA amplifier interface, RDS, fascia included |
The first two columns are general; ours lists what we publish.
Pair once, then it reconnects on its own. No cable, no dongle.
Android 15 on a UIS8581A Cortex-A55 at 1.6 GHz, with a data SIM for maps away from home.
Shape the sound on the unit itself, and read station names instead of bare frequencies.
Screens photograph well; harnesses don't. What separates a proper Volvo S40 2008 Built-in DSP Car Stereo from a shelf unit sits behind the glass: an RCA amplifier interface, a built-in DSP, an external microphone, RDS, a TDA7851 amplifier chip and an ST7708 radio chip.
A fascia that lines up can't tell you what sits behind your dashboard, and that's where upgrades get painful. Three things were decided at the factory, not by the model year: the amplifier, the auxiliary input, and the speaker package. So we do it the slow way. You send the year and a photo of the connector stack, we match it to the version we hold, and only then does it ship. I keep seeing projects stall on a skipped photo, and it's an annoying way to lose a weekend.
The launcher is built around the panels you'd use at speed, with a dock along the bottom. Long-press a blank spot to switch themes.
Because it's a full Android device rather than a mirroring screen, you install the map app you already pay for, and that matters more on a Volvo V70 2005-2009 than on a new car. So what's the payoff? Headroom. Two gigabytes is fine for CarPlay and one map; four is what I'd choose if navigation runs while music plays. That's the part of a Volvo S60 2007 Wireless CarPlay Retrofit people actually feel.
Nothing below ships unless you've asked for it: a DAB+ antenna with a USB adapter, a front dash DVR camera with ADAS, an ELM327 OBD reader, a tire-pressure display, an AHD reversing camera, a four-camera 360 system, a dynamic-trajectory parking camera and a trim removal tool set.
If you're adding one extra, make it the reversing camera, because it changes a daily manoeuvre and a Volvo XC70 2005-2009 Car Multimedia Player already puts the screen in your eyeline. Think harder about the 360 system: four camera runs, and a first install that's genuinely awkward and frustrating. I keep watching that one go wrong.
Say so in the same message if you're ordering a Volvo S40 2008 Built-in DSP Car Stereo order with the camera, the microphone or the DAB antenna. One shipment beats two.
Tell me what your Volvo S60 and Volvo XC70 2005-2009 carries today, which amplifier it left the factory with, and what you'd like the screen to do, and I'll walk through it before you pay. Set on a Volvo V70 2006 Android 15 Head Unit but unsure which version? Say so in the first message.

Send your model year, VIN and a photo of the connector stack, and we'll confirm the version and the leads before it ships.
See the HB/HV7145 on witson.comThe S40, S60, V40, V70 and XC70 across those five model years. We still ask for your model year and VIN, because the amplifier and the auxiliary input weren't identical from car to car.
Yes. The air-conditioning dials and their buttons don't move. Only the radio recess changes, and it takes our panel, its knobs and the hard keys.
The original head unit comes out and our panel takes its place. Nothing drives the old display afterwards.
Memory, and only memory. HB is 2 GB plus 64 GB and HV is 4 GB plus 64 GB, and both run Android 15 with the same connectivity, DSP and tuner.
It can change the leads and the version we send, which is why we ask first. Send your model year and a photo of the connector stack and we'll confirm it.
If your display has faded, a used Volvo S40 2008 radio buys the same twenty-year-old parts. This panel replaces that stack and adds wireless CarPlay.
