Volvo 480 Club Europe

Unfortunately I have a 1989 standard with sunroof which is riddled with tinworm, so started to extract organs for helping other 480's - is there anything that could help you?

Please give me a message or a call - 07878 175690...

Hi kenthesweep, I live in Switzerland so it would be a bit complicated (but I am really not in a hurry and have relatives in the UK) - but I could be interested in a right hand side (driver side in the UK) door pocket... if it is not already cracked of course.
PS. Thank you!
PPS. Against payment of course.

Apologies, the door pocket is in fact cracked, so cannot help with that one...

Classic!

Classic!

I found the crack can be rectified by sticking some heavy duty tape on the inside. If this is insufficient I may explore going about mending it with modelling techniques

Oh, the joys of owning a classic car!

In fact I have repaired mine (big piece completely broken off) with a piece of Plexiglas and plastic glue. But as the pocket has already had a previous repair the fault lines are very visible, and I need to tidy up the dried glue runnings. It will be okayish, but a new / undamaged original is on my bucket list...

Hi, i'm looking for the driver side mirror cap and the front grille (just the part with the volvo badge). Do you stll have those? And would you post it to London?

cheers

sent you a pm

Hi don't suppose you've got clear front indicators?

Sadly you won’t get these from a 1989 car. You need something after about 1992 I think.

How much you looking for the roof sunroof all electrics +heading. Lookin to do a roof swap at some point.kr inne

Lol sorry just noticed its an 89

Doesn't matter, roof hasn't changed throughout production. If your car is later than the donor, it will fit and the wiring is already present. You need to preserve everything from the roof, including the headliner.

Model years 1994 and 1995 only, but they were the only ones left as a replacement, so many have been retrofitted to older cars.

Thought they didn't start fitting elec sunroof till 90 mine also is 89 with manual sunroof.
