To prevent my windows from becoming dirty on the inside I bought a new dust filter, -->

but where is it mounted?

Anyone?

Never knew the 480 had one

Yes there appears to be one, I've read about it on the German Ebay and in the accesoires-list of this European site. --> still curious where it's mounted!

Must be over the air inlet, look at the car from the front, at the back of the engine bay on the right behind the bulkheaad is the inlet. you can see teh fan inside it.

This is for a RHD car, but I checked the part numbers, and they're the same for the filter on a LHD too (although obviously they're different for other bits!)

Where can you get them? The filter that is?

Presumably Volvo Spares, or Euro Car Parts appear to have one for Â£20.95 + VAT.

one extra point of information.
You also need part number 3468926
This is an insert that is placed in the airopening in the hood to precent rain getting in the filter. Maybe the number is only for lefthand drive
so check this.
And 20 pound for the filter itself is way to expensive.
Volva asks about 22-23 euros. so a price in the region of 20 Euros for a none original filter would be acceptable.

Check scrappies for the cover, they should be the same on the 400 series.
I found one, now have to pick it up.

Are these fitted as standard, if not are they needed???

The dust filter is also located on the accessories page of the club's website. They were not fitted as standard, but I believe they are still for sale at the Volvo dealer.
