The first video in the series of manual swap how to videos I’m creating on my V70R. This video is the disassembly phase. There will be two more 1. showing the reassembly steps 2. all of the electrical and software aspects of the project and 3. absolutely thrashing the car on a track.
I’ve owned it for 3 years with the plan of swapping it, finally it’s happening!!! Honestly, I’m unbelievably stoked for this project.
The idea here is to create a series of videos documenting in detail how to manual swap your V/S60R. There’s so much information scattered throughout the interballs, I wanted to compile everything I’ve learned and found in one place for the enthusiasts.
