1997 850 GLT parting out

Post by **erikv11** » 02 Apr 2017, 21:07

This black on black 850 sedan, low pressure turbo engine, has been in my driveway since last summer. I have picked away at it some but there are many useable parts still on it. It will go to scrap soon, probably by the start of the summer.

Make me an offer and I'm likely to pull it and ship it to you.

Reply here or PM me for parts.

I need the left front parking light assembly and as much of the wiring & loam as can be conveniently cut off. The connector components on mine are badly corroded. I managed to get the electrical contact functioning but I don't expect it to last very long. I have to check the condition of the right side to see if I need that as well. Do you have these parts? Thanks, Bill

The car still has the wiring on both sides I think, but not the corner lights. I can check in the garage for extra corner lights I may have a left (driver's) side.

Let me know if you want both sides for the connectors and wiring, I will follow up with info about the corner light.

I just checked the right side and it is the exact opposite of the left side: clean, no corrosion. So I just need the left side connector with some of the wire and the light if you have it. The lights are readily available so either way getting one should be easy.

There is one other item I could use: The connector for the water temperature sender. This is the sender that is just under the thermostat housing. When I replaced the sensor, the connector just about crumbled when I removed it and I had to solder it back together. If you have this connector I'd like to buy it.

I've been dealing with old Volvos for a long time and the effects of Connecticut weather on them. We're now in southern California and I'm finding out that dryness and heat takes its toll on plastic and rubber in a different way.

do you still have the radio and power antenna motor?

Post by **erikv11** » 17 Aug 2017, 19:15

Radio yes, power antenna no. If you want to know more about the radio send me a PM or post here.

How is the dash mat?

Post by **erikv11** » 31 Aug 2017, 22:02

The top cover, that houses the two speakers and the airbag over the glove box, right?

I'm not sure about the airbag inset I will have to check. I won't be at the car until Sunday or Monday, I will take a look and grab some pics. I can check the bottom plastic, too.
