Doesn't appear to fit 850.

They do. I have a set 302 mm brakes on my 94 850.

You'll just have to have wheels that clear them...I know the Perfo will- not sure about the Columba (both look a lot a like and typically are on turbo cars- the perfo on S70's).

Yes, thanks I remember, for some reason I was thinking the later model brackets were a bit different, but as I now recall these were never on any 850's, at least ones that made it to these shores. The question for me has always been do I want to start looking for another set of wheels other than the stock ones I currently have. But might be good to pick these brackets up and decide what to do later, they should be easily sold if not used.

It will only fit the 850 if you have 16 inch wheels or larger. If I'm not mistaken Columbas are 15s, which were the biggest wheels you could get. Again, don't hold me to that info, because I'm not entirely sure myself, but I do know that 302mm calipers will NOT work with 15 inch wheels.
