I was at a local salvage yard today picking up a spare wheel and tire and the car they pulled it from was an '85 sedan with a tan interior (same color as my daughter's) and it was in very good shape. The glove box had been removed and was complete with a key and ****. My daughter's glove box is shot, so I made them an offer and took it along with the spare.

So now I have a really nice tan glove box, complete with lock and key, and wondering if it will fit my daughter's '91...?

(she's out of town, and I'm thinking about just giving it to her for Christmas, which means I might not get a chance to trial fit it to see if it works).

 

I'm pretty sure my 1987 240 is the same as the newer years, but I dunno about 1985, there were cosmetic interior changes at /some/ point.

 

I remember a few months ago I broke the glove box on my '92 240 and the local shop had a junker '89 in the back that they sold by the glove box out of. Fit right in except two screws the old box had two screw holes less then the newer one. but other than that it fit right in.

 

somewhere in the early/mid 80s, the 240's got a bit of interior face lift. its glove boxes on either side of that date which I wouldn't expect to be interchangable.
