I went to a junk yard near me today in search of a replacement window switch, as I just broke mine. I found a nice black V70, with a black interior that I want. I was wondering if there were any write-ups out there regarding an interior swap? I'm going to probably do everything but the dash. I've already had the center console out for my 5 speed swap, but I don't know about seat removal, or the proper way to remove any trim pieces without destroying them. Anyone have any suggestions?

I also saw a red 850 turbo sedan there as well, with a black interior that was nice before someone left the sunroof open, and the car filled with two feet of snow. It was sad...

 

I did mine this week. Bought the fronts/door panels/steering wheel/and some wood trim. Its easy. Disconnect battery, there's 4 bolts per seat, unplug harnesses, lift up side trim panel on seat, unbolt seat belt, remove seat. Reverse to install.

 

Nice looking seats.

Most of the trim pulls off. The handles screw off but the trim around the ceilings has some funny clips at the ceiling. Try to get them off of a practice car first. Matter of fact, strip down a practice car before tearing into the car you really want the parts off of.

 

Great videos
