1987 Volvo 244 DL Windshield Seal(s) Part(s). 200 1987

I reently replaced my 2 - 240s with new windshields - rubber molding comes with it - but make sure they pre-dry fit it and install shims at the bottom
If they use butyl it will tend to settle drop doen in a few months - butyl is O/E recommended
They will insist on urethane - but when I used urethane it was hard as a rock - allowed no play for expansion/contraction and you could here it 'snap' under hot conditions.

I used to install windshields so I know - also on rough roads with the urethane having no 'give' it will crack your windshield as well.

Insist on butyl - auto body supply places sell it

Ask for a 1993 W/S series when ordering - they fit all 240s and are nicely tinted

I did my 1980 and 1993 240 with great results
