Interchangeable exterior parts 1999 C70

Post by RodgersCounty »

Forum...
I have a 1999 Volvo C70 w/200k miles. I love my car, but it's beat-up. I want to know if I can exchange my hood and doors with a 2006 C70 convertible? Any issues, or can I just plug and play?

Thanks

DR

I don't know when the P80 C70 was phased out in the US, but in the UK it was 2005. I'll assume 2006 in the US as the P2 car has such different dimensions and design that is obvious nothing would bolt across. All exterior components on the P80 C70s from 98-2005 are fully interchangeable.
