A thread too good to resist.
15" steel wheels from 740/940s. Nifty center-recess wheel covers from about '92-'95 era 940/850s.
IPD heavy duty sway bars. I absolutely love those. I transplanted them from Sophie ('86 245, r.i.p.) when I put Sven on the road.
Quad horns, powered by a relay. Two tucked into each side corner of front air dam, the sound comes out the wheel wells. Perfect for those "idiot driver" situations where they approach from one side or another but rarely from straight ahead.
Seat restoration. It's soooo good for your back.
I keep my tools in the wagon cargo area, not at home. Very rarely, I've used them to complete my 60 mile commute.
Big box speaker going across the cargo area, just behind the rear seat. Has two eight inch dual cone speakers.
Restored the airbox heater duct and thermostat. Added a cheapo digital 'indoor-outdoor' thermometer to the airbox so when the t'stat goes bad I'll know about it, hopefully before it cooks the amm.
E-code headlights, but I wouldn't suggest anyone take on the project I got into. They work great though (see avatar pic at top corner here).
Painted the front corner lights' inner reflector housings amber. I like the look. Toughest part was mixing the color. Needs opaque white paint on the plastic first, then the amber over that.
Rumors that I'm obsessed are entirely untrue.
