Few Random Volvo Questions 120-130

a few separate questions that I did not want to start multiple threads over.

1) "What If" Badges
*IF* volvo had ever decided to make a GT Amazon Wagon, what numerical designation would they have gone with? 223? 125? 225? If, at some point after I've finished all the suspension and system upgrades in my 220 and made it into a GT type car, and I could afford to have some custom badges made, which designation would make the most sense?

2) OD Indicator light.
I had a blue 1800E style OD indicator light in mu old dashboard. It was located just above the heater switch, where the late-model hazard light switch goes. I now have a hazard switch, as well as a breaks-out/seatbelt warning light above the wiper switch. Because of the size of the instrument panel behind the dash, I have nowhere to put my nice little light. I know that Phil or Ron or someone had made up an LED thingie that went into the turn signal indicator, but has anyone ever added a new indicator light to a dashboard? Does anyone have any suggestions on where to mount this little light that would be unobtrusive, yet aesthetically pleasing?

3) Carpet colors.
Early this year I picked up a couple rolls of indoor/outdoor carpeting from Home depot. I chose a blue, because my 220 is/was/will have a blue body. I had black and it turns out that I can *never* see anything down there if I drop it.
My new 68 130 has only surface rust on the floorboards, but no mat and no carpet at all. It's got a green body and tan interior. I was thinking about green or tan carpet, but those colors do not appear to be available. Grey is available. Would grey look okay in such a car?
