Thanks @volvosweden for this really helpful video, it is by far the best of the bunch. You show each step, especially the crucial tunnel sliding one, where the spring and pry clips are, how long each screw is, everything. Just a small addendum for 2008 C30 users: There is no small plate with 12V socket in and two of the steps are reversed. Remove the shield from around the handbrake, then slide the tunnel backwards *just before* trying to unscrew the two screws at the bottom of the waterfall, rather than the other way round as shown on the S40. On the C30, the tunnel sliding step is the critical magic that every other video misses. Without it you can see but cannot reach those two screws.

Thank you for this video. I had this problem this morning 😤with my 07 S40. So i went home and watched your video 🤔as I imagined it to be a major workshop repair😓. Your video told me otherwise and how to solve the problem😮. This afternoon I returned to my car with a torx 25 and a butter knife and I'm mobile again😃. Without your video I wouldn't have had the confidence to undertake this job😎. 👍👍👍👏👏👏👏

Without your video, I may have had to have my daughter's car towed and would have paid the repair shop to resolve the problem. Thank you again.

Really helpful. Job done easily on my 2006 C70 with your video, thank you. I did have a scare that when I started the engine soon after reassembling none of the dash board instruments were working, but this sorted itself in a few minutes - something rebooting?? It’s worth mentioning in case others have the same heart stopping moment!! On 2006 C70 no need to remove cubby tray behind floating console or slide the centre console back. The most difficult part for me was putting the gear shift handle back.

My 2010 V50 had a slightly different console, but I figured it out! It took over 30 minutes to get the shift knob off. Here is how I did it, out of frustration: I put both hands on the knob and yanked it upward with both hands. It came right off to my surprise. My new blind is now in and working. Thank you!!

@julianossowski1435 11 ай бұрын

Magnet polarity makes a difference. 2009 C30. I bought a blind, but once fitted the manual gear selection did not show. I removed it, put the original magnet slider in the new blind and it worked. The original slider was marked POM3, the new one POM2. if you put the faces of the two sliders togther, they attract, if they were both the same polarity they would repel.

Just replaced my gear shift cover using this video as a guide, thank you so much! To remove the gear shift knob the bottom ring needs to be completed detached from the shifter, I did this by disconnecting the cover with the gears on it and moving the D/Manual slot to the shifter and then pushing the ring down onto this space as it is large enough to fit the entire ring and then the gear shifter knob easily came off In my 2008 V50 I didn't need to remove the screws in the center storage to be able to remove the main console.

great video. just did the replacement shift blind on my wife's c70. While everything was open, I ran wires from the cigarette lighter to the upper panel behind the waterfall and surface-mounted an extra cigarette light / USB jack ports. Now my wife can plug in the garmin without wires draping down the front and she has charging ports for her phone. Unless you look behind the waterfall, everything looks the same from the front. The garmin will also double up as her backup camera which I'm still working out the wiring routing with the truck lid.
