2022 VNL 740 Interior Trim Panel Removal Help

Whats wrong with stereo in new volvo . Unless you need that bass so bad to keep you awake . I am under impression that most new vehicles have decent sound systems .

 

Call the dealer and ask them if they will be nice enough to provide instructions , but im sure 10 year old volvo have similar removal procedure , door stayed same - just panel got changed

 

All new trucks all you have to do is just pull, hard.

 

This is the best of what I can remember. Volvos are pretty forgiving with the trim. It takes a moderate amount of force to pull the trim off.

 

Hey I'm interested in replacing my speakers too. Can you tell me the speaker size in the doors and the dash?

 

Should just need a screwdriver.

side note - there is a neater way to wire the Elog, the wires are ready for it and under the center dashboard panel flat storage area to the right of the power ports.

 

Saying the Volvo sound system sucks is a bit harsh! Sounds fairly decent to me in the truck I drive. No subwoofer in mine, but in order to get bass loud enough to overcome the inherent low frequency background noise in a truck going down the road would require a fairly stout system, I would think. I never went that route because I like to hear if something on the truck or trailer goes BOOM or BANG! But that's me.
Back in my younger days we would have killed for a sound system as good as the ones that come from the OEM's now. If you need better go for it.

Be careful what you mess with regarding the electrical system on these new trucks.
Case in point.........
Company bought new 15 2021 Cascadia's. 5 were going to trainers so they needed passenger seats (we normally don't have them except for trainers). Someone decided that they were going to take driver's seats out of 5 other new trucks and put them in the trainer's trucks so they had matching seats. Those 5 trucks the driver's seats came out of were going to get aftermarket seats. Well.............they bricked those 5 trucks the seats came out of! Wouldn't run! Had to go get the appropriate driver's seats back in their respective trucks so that they would run.
