I have the 1993 that comes with 4 lug wheels. Which other years of Volvos are compatable with mine when it comes to engine parts, exterior parts and interior parts?

thanks

Only`93 had the narrower timing belt. `93-`95 were OBD I engine management. `96-`97 were OBD II.

Exteriors remained the same. Seat covers of the `93 had the perforated leather on the center panels. I think side air-bags were added in `95.

Someone correct me if there is other stuff.

So fenders/bumpers from 1995 should fit my 1993 then. But a 1996 or 1998 won't?

thanks for the help.

Probably not a 98. The 850 turned into the S70 then.
