Finally located the elusive original 240 dash in great shape. Found one in a salvage yard. Even posted a notice on here telling others about it but no one responded. Then thought, what the heck, I'll put it in my 83 245. Needless to say, the one I found didn't have a single crack in it (someone had wisely put a fabric pad over it). FORTY BUCKS it cost me (my local Volvo dealer quoted me $1100 for a new one). Bought some paint and now it's tan instead of black. Pulling and installing a dash in a 240 isn't too difficult and even figured out why my rear defroster wasn't working (switch unplugged) while I was at it.
