Snow Day = Junkyard Trip 700 1988

Since I had no school today and had nothing better to do(besides an economics paper) I decided I would take a trip to the junkyard. I'm glad I did because I made out like a bandit. I'm also glad I cashed a check before I went because I spent almost $90. All in all I picked up: 2 really nice 195/65 Continental ContiTouring Contacts with amazing tread on Volvo 15" steel wheels, 2 really nice 195/65 studless snow tires also on Volvo 15" steel wheels, a 245 third seat with the armrests and seatbelts, 2 black 740 door pockets, a really nice color-correct windshield cowl panel, a 760 equalizer, an 240 radio that sits in the upper location, '90+ 740 rear taillights, black cloth headrest inserts, 2 headlight bezels, and alot of other miscellaneous stuff. I was a little dissapointed to find that the later style taillights don't use the same wiring harness as the old ones. I thought it was a direct instillation. Does anybody know how to make them work? If its not an easy task I will just sell them along with the 240 stuff because I have no use for them. Does anybody know if the '90 rear bumper is a direct fit on my '88 740? If you have a 240 and want either the radio or third seat let me know. By the way if anybody out there wants to help me pass economics I have to write a paper on a career and I was thinking of doing a Volvo mechanic. I think I am going to write specific questions for the paper in the Opinions forum in a little while. Thanks alot.
