New to 850 850 1993

Hi! I was a proud owner of a Volvo 960 for 6 months, until recently another driver decided to crash her Nissan into my wonderful car and sandwiched me between her car and the concrete Jersey barrier. Ouch!

Anyways, her insurance company decided that my car has been totalled and so, I bought a 93 850 GLT.

Since I bought this 850, I have found numerous items to fix.

First, I am curious about how to turn on the wipers for my headlights? Is there a special switch for these wipers or does both my little wipers motors are faulty?

Secondly, my the end part of my exhaust is hanging loose. While I can tie it back up with a hose clamp, I'm wondering if there is something more elegant that I can do? Like buying a replacement part that is use to hang the exhaust.

Thirdly, the power seat for the driver seat seems to be broken. The controls for tilting the back seat seems to be working as I can hear the motor making noise but the seat won't lean back. I thought I read about replacing the wire for the seat back. Does anyone know where I can find the cable? I guess I could travel to a dealer, but I'd like to buy it online since there is no Volvo dealer near my home.

Thank you.
