where to buy hubcaps, 1986 240 wagon 200

If you get replacements, do this to protect your investment:

Make sure you know how to attach the finicky locking center piece. Front and back ones go on differently. After reinstalling, tug along outer edge of cover to be sure you have it on right.

And most importantly, don't let ANYONE other than yourself or someone who specializes in old rear-drive Volvos put them back on your car. You can bet that service shop employees will not be familiar with these. A percentage of these good folks will be in a hurry, will push the center cap into place and figure it's done. That's how I lost one of mine of that type. It's just not that easy to get them on.

The slightly later and more common style is one piece. Those aren't perfect either - the plastic tabs that hold the spring-wire tend to get stuck and break. But I do prefer them as being easier to use.
