found my charcoal interior for 200 the complete interior... all of it I think that it is worth it I work for an upholstery shop so I can fix most anything in the inside of it.....

 

Pics when you get it done.

 

Yeah when you get this done then please share with us.

 

not a problem with that... I cant wait to get it this friday..... I will have to redo the front seats they are a little ratty... going to do some R type things to it....

 

what brand of projectors would you all recommend would like a pair of dual halos would also like the hid kit.....any recommendations would be helpful and thank you in advance....

 

No offense, but your sentences are hard to understand. lol.


Google search.....I seriously think people forget about the internet sometimes:

volvo 850 projector headlights - Google Search

 

I am sorry about that... I wanted a recommendation about dual halo projectors and what brand fellow members would suggest... I did not think that I could get that kind of information from google.... I will do a search there, but would like to know what members here think....

 

Do you plan to re-skin the door panels?

 

dont know just yet havent really looked at that. But the deal fell through. So now I will have to go to the salvage yard and spend the day there (in the sun) ripping out the charcoal interior out of a red wagon..... going to have to spend some more time finding the tail light I need.

 

well the deal just happened today I got most of the interior out of it but am having a problem with the steering wheel... I cant get the airbag screws loose to get to the nut for the wheel I dont know if I will need a wheel puller or not but I need to get the wheel off to get the lower part of the dash...... I will also need to go to the junk yard and find a center console... if anyone knows how to remove the center console that would help me out greatly....

 

Two T30 screws hold the air bag on and an 18mm nut holds the steering wheel on. No need for a puller.

You will need a long T30 driver to get the bag off. I picked up a set of screwdriver style torx drivers from Sears for under $10.

This link will guide you through the center console removal, https://volvoforums.com/forum/volvo-...console-30687/.

 

FYI, regarding the tail light, It's amazing how many Volvo parts are on ebay for all models. You could probably build an entire car. If you can't find the light you need locally, search ebay. I have noticed a wide range of prices for the same part so don't buy the first one you see! Just thought I would mention it.

 

eBay is AWSOME!!!

I laughed so hard.

 

so I went back today to get a few more things... I didnt bother with the lower dash and the center console was broken and I didnt bother with the front seats as the passenger was not power anyway and the driver was in really bad shape.... I know where one is that is in better shape anyway... I do need the center console badly as mine is broken at the hinge for the arm rest.... as for the tail lights I now have the lower left lens I also pulled both uppers right and left (these have a yellow section instead of a clear one) I got them so I could change the look a little.... The rears came off of a 1997.....

 

so I got about half of my interior installed today... I did forget to take pics of the before so I will take some pics of the after.... hope to have them posted in the next few days..... I do have a lot of cleaning to do to the new interior though so wish me luck

 

Good luck.

Im going to the yard in the AM to gut a potential 96 R. Got my fingers crossed it is indeed an R.

 

found out that the power supply for the ecc and stuff is dead that is why I dont have any movement in the fan... so I have to find a good used one or pay 150.00 at the volvo dealer I dont have that kind of money to burn all the time... I am thinking that I will just bite down and buy new so that I know I wont have a problem....

 

so I got a used power supply from the junkyard it didnt work and still does not work..... well it only works for a second when I start the car..... dont know what else to do..... going to start a new thread for this after I do a search....

 

got antother power supply from a yard fan works now but when I put it on aut it doesnt work at all.... I did finally get the door panels installed I am pleased with the out come I do need to reskin the panels so I am thinking of how I can change somethings I want to try to change the look a little. any suggestions would be cool but I have a few ideas to do that....
