Gps, Camera, Xenon

Recommended Posts

I have a 2008 S80 T6 AWD.

There are 3 things I would like to eventually have done with the car as it does not currently have them:

GPS
Xenon Headlights
Back up camera


In regards to the GPS, I believe that the S80's that come with GPS have it rise out of the dashboard, so I am not sure if I can have that done with mine, but looking for ideas.

The headlights I have now are a standard halogen.

I am also not sure if the car comes pre wired to add a rear camera.

Anyway, GPS would be last on my priority list as I use my iphone most of the time, but if anyone has any recommendations on where to purchase these things, or any other suggestions, please let me know.

Thanks.

I have been told the xenon headlamp upgrade would consist of a full wire harness (at least in the front) and a ecu reprogram.

At least that was when I inquired about it at the dealer.

I also have a 2008 S60 T6 AWD.

Interested in following the rest of this thread though.

To swap to xenons on that generation S80 requires about $3500 in parts and labor. Required elements include new lights, software update, and a new front wire harness.

AFAIK no backup cameras until 2011 with the new screen; don't think it is backwards compatible due to new cars having Sensus and yours not having that.

GPS is probably possible though, but I'd expect you'd need to change out the entire dash.

There's a lot more S80 info on Swedespeed; you may want to check that out.
