Digital Lifestyle Outfitters (DLO) announced yesterday the availability of its Volvo FM Transmitter.
Developed in partnership with ProClip USA, the Volvo FM Transmitter will be available through Volvo dealerships for S40, V50 and XC90 models. It enables iPod users to transmit their iPod’s audio through their Volvo’s FM radio.
The device is mounted on the dashboard and is hard-wired to the Volvo’s power system with fuse protection. The Volvo FM Transmitter features a dock connector, and an auxiliary input (which can be used to let other audio devices like game systems or portable DVD systems to play their audio through the FM radio).
The kit, which is available now through Volvo dealerships for $139 (plus installation), is compatible with all dock-connected iPods including the iPod nano.
The Volvo FM Transmitter is listed at authorized Volvo dealerships and service centers as part number 8640109. Installation is performed by authorized dealers only.
