Hey, I just picked up an 83 240 DL and the 2 front doors need the windows replaced. What all years of 240 and/or 242's can I use to replace them. Thanks

 

well, since you mention front doors, I'm going out on a limb and saying you have a 244. The window glass remained unchanged from 1975 to 93. Actually, I think the 144 in 74 used the same glass too as that was the year they did away with the wing vents. Same is true for the windshield and back glass.

 

I have an 83 240 DL (sorry to leave that out) Is it the same too? What about the hardware? Was that also unchanged, I have manual windows. Thanks.

 

Front door glass from any Volvo 244 or 245 1975-1993 will fit any other Volvo 244 or 245, manual windows or electric. Before 1975 Volvos had cigarette windows on the front doors. Glass for the rear door is even more interchangeable, the rear doors are exactly the same on the 1965 Volvo 144 as they are on the 1993 Volvo 240, apart from the door handle being redesigned.

 

.....

 

Cool, Thanks. Gonna go grab myself a couple new pieces monday.

 

Don't get to go today, hanging out with my 2 sick daughters. Should be able to get over there tomorrow.

 

OK, its done! Just like you said. Took the glass form both front doors on 2 different sedans then put them in my wagon. No problem. They were late 80's models too. Fit perfect.

 

Super!

 

 

as long as its the same body style (sedan vs coupe vs wagon). at least if its 83+ ... I'm not sure about the early versions with the more slender trunk and hood.
