Factory Audio Upgrade Options For My New 2005 S80

So i'm about to buy a 2005 Volvo S80 2.5T AWD, and it has the stock head unit (not even sure which number it is). Did Volvo make a center speaker for this model S80? And if so, what other upgrades are required to make it work? (I'm assuming a different head unit and possibly an external amplifier?). I want to keep a stock setup, so basically I want to know what's the nicest factory Volvo setup I can install in this car, and any details I need to know about the install.

Thanks.

If you have a center speaker grille, then yes, it had that option.

The external amp fits under the passenger seat, and the headunit will have options for Pro-Logic audio. I don't know the model numbers off the top of my head though, hopefully someone else can chime in.

If its anything like my '05 XC70, which had a HU-650, went to the junkyard to pull a center speaker from an S60, pulled the dashboard center speaker trim out, and just dropped in the speaker i picked up. My car was already prewired for it, yours should be as well. As for making it work, after plugging the speaker in it played audio like any other speaker. My hu-650didn't have any pro-logic options.
