Default New Guy

Hi everyone, I posted a couple times last week but yesterday I finally bought an 02 Volvo S60. I really wanted the T with the AWD but I just got the base because I thought it was a good deal. I got all the records for it which are all from Lee Volvo in Wellesley MA. All scheduled maintenance has bee done, it was a one owner vehicle and only has 54K miles on it. It's incredibly clean. I'll try and get some pics sometime this week. I'm pretty happy with it so far. I'll probably be frequenting this site now that I've joined the Volvo community.

One small question that I have. I was disappointed that my car didn't have the OEM wood trim panels. Is there anywhere where I can buy the OEM panels? I don't like the cheap plastic crap they sell on Ebay. I want the real thing. I checked Evolve, IPD, and Swedespeed per the info I found on this site, but none of them seem to have it? Is that a dealer only type of item? Any idea what I can expect to pay for it??

Welcome. Google Volvo parts and see if you get any hits. I've only seen them on ebay as far as I can remember. What color is your S60? Mine is white with tan interior.

Welcome.A Volvodealer should have the trim, but it will cost a bit.

Welcome to the forum.

- Go to the nearest woods.
-Chop some woods.
-Cut them in shape.
- Treat them with colouring agent.
- Clear-coat them.
- Install.
- Done.
- Happy.

...[8D].

Dealer probably wants $1M a piece, therefore try:

- Junkyard.
- Erie Volvo (a dealer in PA).

Good luck,


JPN
