In response to my earlier inquiries, someone suggested this website:
http://brickparts.d--r.com/headlightFAQ.htm
and when I went there, among the things I read was this passage:
"...I have now learned that there is another option for these cars! In addition to the 1986-1993 240 cars, the exact same headlights were also used on Volvo WG and WIA series heavy trucks. There was a "downgrade" option for fleet buyers of these trucks to replace the lousy flush plastic lamps with 7" round sealed beams! That's an upgrade in my eyes!
Magic part number: 8026546, from your friendly Volvo Heavy Trucks dealership. This is a bezel/bucket/faceplate assembly to mount standard 7" round lamps in the late 240 front end. You need two 8026546, one per side. The standard '86-up 240 headlamp rear bracket is used.
The faceplates come in black paint, so you'll probably want to have them painted. When I inquired at my local Volvo Truck dealer, these were around $150 each. Of course, you will also need to get a set of good 7-inch E-code lights from your lighting specialist...."
Now you know as much as I do.
Hope this helped. Best regards
