Wanted: 850R passenger rocker cover

Looking for a passenger side rocker cover for my 1996 red 850R. I will consider any color, as long as it's the R-specific rocker cover.

Regular 850 rocker covers are different (and I already have one as a backup).

Let me know if you have one or know where I can get one.

Thanks!
Jason

No, sorry. It sold in 12 hours when I listed it on Ebay.

I'm sad to list my favorite Volvo wagon for sale, but it's time to thin the herd.

This 1988 Volvo 240 DL wagon was originally a Georgia car and was meticulously cared for by the Volvo dealer ...

Re: 1993 940 Yazaki speedometer not working

I've gone over all the repair guides and threads many times. The Volvo Club guide is for the bad caps from the '91-'92 clusters. My '93 cluster doesn't have that issue.

If I was better at reading electrical diagrams, I think I could narrow down the places to look. I know the signal comes in fine ...

A friend of mine picked these up for his T5 for $250 this week, so they've gone to a good home.

1993 940 Yazaki speedometer not working

The instrument cluster on my '93 945 is giving me fits.

When I bought the car, the speedometer didn't work and the odometer ran 3-4 times too fast. Very weird. After going over Art Benstein's great write up on the '93 cluster ( http://cleanflametrap.com/speedo7.html ) several times, I realized I ...

Feel free to text or call him at the number listed in the ad or above. He responds really quickly. I don't vouch for him or the wheels. I just like Volvo parts and want these to go to good home.

These are not mine. I'm just passing on the info. I did communicate with the guy several times as I debated buying them. I decided I don't really need them right now. Nice guy, and I think he's willing to ship. He seems honest and helpful, but I ...

Wanted: one subframe poly insert

I installed the IPD poly inserts into my old subframe bushings before realizing that I really just need new bushings. Duh.

I destroyed the first insert in the process of removing the old bushing with a hole saw. Then I figured out a way to remove the old bushings without the hole saw method, and ...

Re: Remanufactured Turbo on my 850 R wagon - need guidance

The rebuilder says exactly that: "Check the oil drain line for kinking, clogging, restrictions or any other deterioration and replace as necessary. We highly recommend replacing the oil feed supply line and not reusing the old line even if it seems reusable. If you choose to reuse the old line, the ...
