Re: [WTB] 850 clutch and brake pedal assembly
Check with Robert, although he tries to keep full kits intact, but he may have a spare. He was headed back to Cincinnati at last report. Probably easiest to call him, his cell number is on his website.

Re: FCP Euro's "Customer Appreciation Event" is Live, Save on Volvo Parts Today!
The code won't work if you have any items marked with MAP and the red tag. That stands for "minimum advertised pricing". It's the lowest price the manufacturer will allow the part to be sold for, thus coupons won't apply to it. Remove those items and place them on a separate order and the ...

Re: 850 manual conversion part(s) question
For the center console a wrecked manual car is the best bet. I haven't seen Robert's work around but if he does something then that's more than enough to convinvce me that it's a good option.
You don't need different axles. You do need different axle seals.

Re: 850 manual conversion part(s) question

This worked well for me:

It pops into the original console from the top. You have to trim is a bit on the inside to make the boot fit correctly.

Re: 850 manual conversion part(s) question
This is how it looks.
I still need to grind off the bottom part of the Econ/Sport switch, hence the hole.

Re: where do you keep your phone in your 850?
I keep mine in my pocket. If anyone calls me while I'm driving they can leave a voice mail and I'll call them back when I've stopped.

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?
Dear Diary! What a great day! I finally had a reason to drive through Germany with my R. What a scary blast it is to drive a p80 at over 140 miles per hour.
