S40 Interior Trim

Post by Brams »

I have just bought a 2005 S40 2.0D SE (my previous car was an S60; mmmmm......)

I was very disappointed by some of the trim details compared to the S60 and am looking to change or restyle at least the following :-

What is Volvo's thing about cup-holders? One each? Do they think we are all Americans? The two in the centre console next to the handbrake are quite ugly (as well as impractical) with no cover. Does Volvo or anyone else make any kind of substitute box or at least a cover? Similarly, the two on the rear central arm rest ruin the whole ambiance. Anyone know of anything to cover them or replace them?

All info or ideas gratefully considered!

ps. I don't suppose anyone has solved the great ipod question yet? I had an accessory transmitter unit before but it was more trouble than it was worth - I think I'll get my CDs back out again!
