Fitting SatNav neatly to a 2015 XC60
3 Attachment(s)
I was disappointed to find the built-in media system in my 2015 XC60 has no SatNav as standard. While windscreen mounted aftermarket satnavs are common, I wanted something a bit neater. I found a solution with by making a small aluminium plate which attaches to the plastic frame surround with two screws. The wiring runs in behind the trim and down to the 12V socket via the 5V converter. This socket switches on/off with the car ignition - ideal.
The satnav I used is a Garmin DriveSmart 61 with 7" screen. It has wifi updates of maps for-life, connecting to your home wifi.
Ive attached pic of the plastic surround and solution. The hardest part is taking the trim apart but there are several videos on YouTube for guidance.
