Batten for Volvo

Tablet and camera mount for the Volvo XC40 / EX40

On the list · 2018 on

Batten clips into the factory luggage-net points in the roof lining of the Volvo XC40 / EX40 to carry cameras, facing forward through the windscreen or back over the seats. Tablets for the rear seats need points behind the front seats, which we haven't confirmed on this car yet. No drilling, and nothing clamped to the headrests.

The XC40 / EX40 and its roof points

Volvo uses roof mountings for its safety net across its range, but the XC40 and electric EX40 are on a different platform from the bigger Volvos. We haven't confirmed their points yet.

Does your car have the points?

Look for round covers in the roof lining on each side, just behind the rear seats and just behind the front seats. The mountings appear to be standard; the safety net itself is an accessory.

Where to look: on the roof lining, just behind the front seats and just behind the rear seats, one on each side.

Some cars hide the point under a small trim cap. On many, including most VW Group cars, there's no cap and the slot is just visible.
