WTB instrument cluster 850 with info screen

Post by 850 LPT »

I'm looking for an instrument cluster for my 96' 850 non turbo with the info screen and the accompanying info switch. Just for reference, this is what that setup looks like:

Since I set out to find one of these, I learned that on VDO clusters (which I have) the info module can be swapped out.

If someone has this module with the harness and info switch laying around and wants to part with it, I'm all ears. If you don't want to bother taking the module out of the cluster, I'll just take the whole thing.

Thanks for looking.

My 1995 850 Turbo Sedan is in the gallows - much to my chagrin.
Would it's cluster work for you?

This is from a working daily driver that will be going to the scrapyard as there's no interest in it. It's killing me since it's still a decent car.

Sorry to hear about your 850, but to answer your question: If it is a VDO cluster it should work just fine.
You can verify this easily. If the trip meter is located above the odometer, then it's a VDO (see photo above).
Volvo used another manufacturer too, and in that one the trip meter is below the odometer.

Where in CT are you?

I'm still looking for either a cluster (VDO) with an info screen, or just the info screen module itself, plus the harness and switch.

Thanks, Dirk
