Default Fitting CD Autochanger to New S40

I am about to take delivery of a new S40 next week and was wondering if I can fit a 10 CD autochanger from my S80 to it? I would prefer the CD autochanger in the new car if possible got used to it in the S80. It was only fitted 3 years ago.

Many thanks in advance

There's almost no chance that will work. The S40/V50/C30/C70 have a very proprietary sound system that can only support multi-cd in-dash. If the model you bought has a single CD player your only option for adding multi-disc will be the 6 disc in-dash setup from Volvo and don't expect any change out of £400!

Sorry but these new audio systems are notoriously diffficult to modify or interconnect and precious few 3rd party add-ons exist.
