Switch/Gauge lamps 700


Is there a decent source for the correct lamps (the tiny ones) that fit into the switches (headlight switch, power roof switch, etc.) and the larger type that fit into the auto shift window, etc???

Boy, I went to the dealer, and they want big money for these tiny blue/green lamps?!??! ouch. (I bought three, now I need more!)

I need three of the tiny ones in blue/green, and several of the larger ones for various other items (ie: climate control lamp, instrument cluster, etc..)

Typically, jobbers sell these in white, but, it doesn't look very nice on the dash. I prefer the correct colour, looks quite sharp.


I also need a few odds and ends for a red interior '87 760 GLE:
-I need one interior rocker panel screw cover (its a large plastic cover for the trim screws)
-The little arm rest latch (which is attached in the arm rest box, mine cracked, and slides through to the other side not allowing the arm rest to stay put, I'm sure they all break.)
-Three of the little red lenses for the door open lights, mine are all broken, ahh that Volvo plastic ;)
-I've got the OE stereo tape player and EQ, and its coming out (even got the original factory manuals and Volvo tape cleaner kit-wow, it comes in a snazzy box!!). What I want to replace the EQ hole with is the little pocket that I guess 740s have. The radio works, display is intermittent, and so is the radio/tape actually. This would appear to be a cold solder joint somewhere in the unit, EQ works. UNLESS, I can buy an adapter to connect my new stereo to the EQ?!? anybody? I'm sure it works on line level, looks like my 760 has an amp as well.

If anyone in Toronto has a few Volvos kickin' around, that would be great. Contact me at myronx19@hotmail.com

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
