Stay away while taking care of your Volvo.

When you pay that much money for a product designed and developed SPECIFICALLY for your car, you expect a lot from it. The product arrived in rather shabby and cheap packaging which dashed my already limited hopes and upon further inspection the supplied instructions show a general drawing of the vehicle with instructions to 'connect the power wire to the reversing lamp'. After spending several hours connecting the taillight power cable to this camera, I decided to just try a universal power supply. Vain. The camera doesn't appear to be completely insensitive to anything other than the LED on the license plate light box itself, which is cheap and doesn't match the tint of the stock light at all. So not only does this product not do what it is advertised to do, it wastes your time and could damage your car's electrical fuse if you don't know what you are doing. If you want to spend money on false hope, buy a lottery ticket and avoid this junk heap.
