Windshield coating, or tinting, or laminated

A couple of issues to clear up first. First, sorry for barage of postings lately. My daughter drives this car and she lives out of state so I only get to see the S60 every now and then. Just saw it this past week and had lots of questions that she did not know. Found this forum and you guys are grea...

What is the difference with sport seats?

Earlier posts discussed changing (interchange, swap, exchange) the weather worn leather front seats. When looking at salvage yard listings, they make the designation of with sport seats and without sports seats. Both appear to be available in cloth or leather and both appear to have either with powe...

Re: Windshield rubber side weather stip

Here are some photos of the cracked and broken rubber weather stripping. One shows the rubber goes under the winshield trim piece. Another shows the rubber as seen from above the windshield, the last shows the rubber extending down the back window. It appears to be in good shape, but is actually cra...

Re: Windshield rubber side weather stip

Thanks for trying to understand JRL, I really do appreciate your attention and help. I must say though, that I find it amazing that there is a question as to what I am referring to. I'm almost positive that all S60 models have these rubber pieces. Wait for the the photos as my daughter has the car r...

Re: Windshield rubber side weather stip

Thanks for the reply, no my question is not about the plastic/metal strips but rather the rubber that appears a part of those strips. I'll try to post photos later today. Found this thread on the on the Detailing forum, https://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=46471 There th...

Re: Seat interchange, swap, exchange

Excellent info. Thank You. Great idea trying to expand search options to include other models. Looked on eBay and found very few S60 seats. I suspect shipping is high while demand is low, so yards are not listing seats. Try the site below. They are a fantastic source of junk yard parts. By the way, ...

Re: Top trim strip on roof- 2003 S60

To clairify, are we saying that the metal strip and the rubber strip are two pieces, AND that the rubber piece is also two pieces (front and rear)? I only need the rubber pieces, but I need both sides front to back. Does anyone know what is involved in fitting the rubber pieces into place? For examp...

Windshield rubber side weather stip

Florida sun has totally dried out the rubber weather stripping that appears to start in the lower corners of the windshield runs up the sides all the way across the top and then down the rear window. Mine is cracked and pieces are broken out. Is it really all one piece? What is it called? How is it ...

Seat interchange, swap, exchange

With a lifetime in Florida, parked in the sun, my 2001 S60 has issues caused by the sun that many of you have not mentioned, but as the years go by, some of these issues will likely surface with greater regularity. My leather seats are dry, cracked, and torn beyond what cleaners, conditioners, and e...

S60 Vin decode and options

I know ALOT about cars, but I am not clear on the configuration of my daughter's 2001 S60. I am trying to help her with maintenance and repairs over the phone and internet as she is FL and I am IL. I can't fully figure out what she bought, and she doesn't know what to tell me to help identify, for e...
