Hi-
That screen looks verrry practical, wish to see Ken C.s post on that.
The snow caps are a Volvo product. They were available from IPD for a short time, and may now be NLA. Maybe Erling or some other Euro-based BB member can help out.
Before IPD ran out, I was able to scrape up the $$$ (50 per) for a set for a 1984 245 and two sets for my 1986 and 1988 244s. They are easy to attach, and can be used (if you're lazy like me) in their black color. Looks like Ken C. painted his to match.
Other BB folks have attached fine (1/8-in squares) hardware cloth to the grille. I think they cut strips narrow enough to slip down through the grille slots, and then attached it to the underside of the bars using small zip ties.
BTW, my nicest improvements have been (1) re-habbing the support of the seat bottoms of both front seats using new grids and a large indoor-outdoor carpet square.
(2) Fold-up center arm rests. Even w/o cup holders they are great. Door pockets do all the cup-holding I have needed.
(3) Voltmeters, installed in the 2"square panel below the small clock (cars have the large tach already). Wired to signal with key in Position I or II.
(4) Footwell lights that illuminate the front passenger's footwell when either door opens. I put a center-off SPDT switch in one of the control panel blanks so the footlights are on with domelight, off, or on constant. Can be used by passenger to read a map with little light bother to the driver. BTDT.
(5) Cruise Control.
Regards,
Bob
