Nate -

Remember that the 1986 and on taillights are not the same as the older units. The older ones can be made to work, but it's hard (for me) to describe how I did it. This is assuming that you have a sedna, not a wagon.

Put in a WTB classified on the BB, start cruising eBay Volvo Parts & Accessories, and email Evan R. (a BBer) at evanr@pathwaynet.com to see if he has one. He dismantles bricks and may have what you want. There are other places that dismantle, too.

If you go to a junkyard, take cash. Get some things besides the tail light, like I got today a trunk latch motor, the extra noise seals for four doors (off an 89 244), a trailer hitch wiring special switch and a few other things. Make an offer they will refuse, like I said "Well, I'd like to pay $10.00 for all this." He laughed at me, so I continued, "But I think $20 is fair, what do you think?" It worked.

If fact, the did have a good LH tail light on a 240, chrome trim, that would work for you. email me direct if you hit a brick wall in your search.

Good Luck,

Bob
