Re: tearing out what is left of my hair, 2000 V70 XC: P0442

Re: P80 replacement seat skin thread research JAN 2020

Hey guys, I know seat skins are not getting any better with time. SCP is having issues with manufacturing due to the virus. Hopefully we will gain some progress this fall. A full set of skins for under $300 per seat OEM factory quality is a real deal. Go ask any upholtry shop. I was quoted $950 for...

Re: What did you do to your P2 Volvo today?

Took the 13 year old dog to the vet for back leg trouble with heart in mouth.

Used once or twice?

Thrice. Once in my Beetle, once in the T5, and there once was a Scot in Alberta, for whom prices of oil did Hurta. He recycled his oil, and thus didn’t toil, but now he can afford a torque Converda.

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?

That's awesome!! Did you use fabric (flannel?) alone, with padding, or did you incorporate it with an actual headliner? The fabric wasn't exactly flannel, as it had a little stretch to it. She picked it up at JoAnn's, I think. It was fairly thick, and I didn't bother with any foam, as that's what n...
