I have a couple of things I need to do to my '94 850 non-turbo. I'm used to having new vehicles with nothing wrong with them, so little projects on a car are new to me.
1) Need to reglue the headliner on the sunroof. Found a great site that leads you through step by step.

Here is another link for this:

2) Need to replace little plastic clips on an upholstered door part (passenger side). Where do I get those little white clips?

Somtimes you can get these clips and NAPA, but not sure. You might want to check wit the dealer.

3) My driver side door has this loud popping sound when I open it. Happens in two spots while opening...about 1/4 open and then about 3/4 open....and then again when it shuts. Really annoying...how do I fix this?

Here's a link. Very common problem:

4) Need to replace window opener cluster. Found a working one on ebay for $15...just didn't realize that I would have to remove the whole center console.

It's not that hard to remove the console. Here is a link on replacing the microswitch which has directions for removing the console:

5) Paint the rear bumper. There are some spots where the white paint has come off and it looks bad. So what's the best method to repaint just the white plastic part? Sand it some so there's something the paint can stick to and buy some all-weather plastic paint?

I painted my front spoiler on my T5R. Just sanded it down real good, primered it, painted and wet sanded it several coats. Came out great. Took a while to do it though.

6) The strip that runs from the hood, over the top and to the trunk has lost 85% of the black stripping that was on it. Can I buy a replacement part or is there a way to paint it or something?

This is very common. See if you can get the strips from a junk yard from a 98 S70. They work and don't have the peeling problem. Plus they have a lip at the edge of the window so the wiper don't throw the water in side you open driver's side window. I took the ones off my 98 V70 when I put the roof rack on and then used the strips on my 97. Had to cut the back off since they came from a wagon though.

That's it for now. Eventually I'd like to put in a cd player. I can't believe that a car this decked out inside doesn't have a cd player. I guess it is a '94. Is there one of these I need to do first? I guess the door problem is the biggest concern to me because I don't want my door falling off or something.

Not many of the 94's had a CD player. I put one in the glove box of the 94 I had.

2) I noticed while taking out the center console, that in my center armrest (if you can even call it that) there is a light. That particular light doesn't light up. Nor does my cigarette lighter light. Would this be a fuse problem if all my other lights work or could these be burnt out? If they are burnt out, where do I find those?
3) I NEED CUP HOLDERS! Any ideas? I got one of those things that wedge in between the seat and console for about $4, but doesn't seem very sturdy. Any bright ideas out there?

Replaced the power window cluster today. Very easy fix. Thanks for the link.
A couple other repairs that I discovered today that need to be done:
1) Adjustable steering doesn't adjust much and doesn't stay up all the way. The lever is locked into place, but the steering wheel just falls down about 1" from the upper most position.
