Hey

I have a 740 1992 volvo with very worn leather drivers seat. What are my options as far as years and models when looking for a used seat to replace mine?
Thank you in advance
Happy Swede

The S60R and V70R are the most comfy for me. Well bolstered, lots of support for us with longer legs and thighs and they just seem to have THAT act all together! Both the S60R and V70R seem to hold the driver firmly attached. The bolstering limiting the slipping and sliding side to side. Of curse, if you want just pure seat performance, go for Recarro! They can be adapted to almost any car nowadays!

2000 V70XC was about as good as it ever was I think...

780 seats are super comfy, they mostly came in very dark blue or tan and some other odds. they should just bolt in the 740, same chassis etc.

95 and up 960 S and V 90's. I LOVE my V90 seats on long road trips!!!
These have over 165000 miles on them. the quality of the leather in these cars is also MUCH higher than any other Volvo. Should bolt right into a 740Image
