240 carpet sets? 140-160

On a less technical note, now that the car is running nicely, would a 240 carpet set fit well? It the tranny hump the same punched shape as a 74 145?
How about this set:

I successfully installed a carpet out of an 84 240 into my 164e without problem. Seems like a perfect fit to me.

I've always had pretty good luck with finding carpets from
dirty junkyard cars. The OEM volvo carpets are amazingly tough
and high quality. I've pulled untorn / complete carpets out of
the most disgusting cars, washed them with simple green, and a
hose and gotten almost new looking carpets.

I would only bother with 240 carpets if you knew they would
fit and then I'd only spend $20 on junkyard carpets; given my
experience with OEM carpets they're *always* higher quality than
any aftermarket stuff which is 99% of the time total junk.

Couldn't say if it is exactly the same but it should be close enough.
