Just out of interest, is the mirror Cap and surround the same parts on the other Volvo 400 series cars ?
Could I get them off a 440/460 or are they a different design ?
Cheers, Richard.

Between rain storms had a good look at the faulty passenger mirror and the Cap also has damaged clips as well as the mirror surround. Have done a good enough for now temporary fix, which I know will probably become permanent. Will add them to the list of useful bits to keep an eye out for. Cheers, R...

Thanks. Its not the cap I am after, its the surround around the mirror itself, which is black plastic.
Cheers, Richard.

'ow do ?

It was all a bit frantic when we arrived. Thought he had refered to this forum but over lunch relised he must have instead been refering to the Volvo owners club. So went to look for him but his 480 had gone. . . .

Another excellent car ! I would keep the Volvo service history going.
