Help identifying parts - Many, many parts......Update!

Post by scot850 »

As threatened, it is now going to start, so get your thinking caps on and if you are working on your car, make note of the parts (screws, bolts, clips, etc) that you remove to try to help me identify locations of where parts go and then I will edit the thread to add the locations and the part numbers and where used, especially as some parts may be used in multiple locations. Vida will hopefully help me find that information.

When I have time I will also do one for some of the relays used on P80's and locations with pictures to help hopefully those trying to buy parts. One cautionary note, some parts may not even be from P80's as some parts came back from the UK from my dad's garage when he passed. I have already found a 240 grill retainer!

So here we go:

Plastic clips
Plastic clips

1)These clips were in a bag I had identified as 850 under hood liner clips. Looking at Vida these don't show up anywhere? Anyone recognize any of them? The 'square' ones may not be from under the hood at all, but just in the bag.

Update: Well in the picture above, the rectangular clips at the bottom of the picture are what holds the pad under the hood on a 98-04 P80 (V/S/C70). Didn't recall that at all! Also a devil to remove!

Sveedy has identified the 2 others as from the under hood pad from an 850. So picture 1 has been completed!

More random plastic clips

2) More random clips, I believe most will be internal possibly. The 2 square plastic plugs look like they may be from a roof rack bar possibly?

Update: The top left clips have 2 variants. That one with a smaller 'flange' I believe is what holds the plastic cover for the rear carpet below the door. There is a 2nd version that does the same job for the front door which has a larger flange. Volvolugnut has also identified these as being used in P2's. As I don't recall removing any P2 internals, the source is baffling!? :shock: Naturally, it means I have to go look at P2's in the junkyard.......... :roll: :lol:

The lower left clip is what holds the upper trim in place at the back of the side window in a P80 wagon. There are 3 of them that slot into the slots at the back of the metal frame around the rear side windows. That is also the same clip in 3) below.

Even more plastic clips

3) No idea on any of these.

And even more clips

4) The top 2 clip types look familiar but can't place them. Lower one, no idea.

Volvolugnut also ID'd the top 2 'pin's as being from a P2 for holding the door card to frame. Again same comment. Don't recall removing a P2 door card, although I have a tailgate cover..........Hm........!

I'll give these a few days, and then start with bolts and screws (lots and lots........!)

No idea yet on the others. Maybe 850 parts. I may get time to look at one at another yard this week. Another yard visit is in my future!

Many thanks guys for the inputs so far! Nearly there. Some may not get identified, but that is ok. What I'll do is take new pictures with the identified parts removed so we are only focusing on the un-identified parts.

For (1) the square clips and circular clips are definitely the ones holding up the underwood insulation. The ovals may be too, not sure, but I'll try to remember to check.

1. Square clips are P2 hood top insulation clips.
2. 3/4 round clips are used on P2 under hood to position hoses.
4. Top two clips are used on P2 door cards to door frame.

Ovals and rounds are both 850 under hood insulation clips. I just harvested some from the junkyard.

#4 P2 does not have the center pin clip on the tailgate. They use a clip like the white one in #2.

I've got the square/rectangular clips on a P80 someplace. I think it's my 850 hood insulation.

Check the updates on the pictures above. I have identified and had help identifying some of the parts.

In Picture #1, all 3 parts are identified. Large round clip and oval clip are 850 hood pad clips (I think 2 round and 13 oval), and the rectangular ones are P80 hood pad 98-04 (V/S/C 70). The 850 clips are also I believe used on 740/940 cars as well.

In Picture #2, the 2 items on the left have been identified. # others to the center and right not as yet ID'd.

In Picture 3#, only the lower right clip (same as lower left in #2 picture) has been ID'd.

In Picture #4, Volvolugnut believes the upper 2 are used in P2's but there may be some doubt on that.

Thanks for helping guys!

Neil.
