Hey all! My '84 242 could use some power options, like doors and trunk. There's one at the junkyard, but the trunk's not open and there's no trunk keys to be found...what do I do? And as for power door locks...There's a wagon with the dash removed and the central locking system exposed. I need to grab the relays and all that, and of course the lock motors, but what else? I plan on taking the wiring from the back doors, so it will be long enough for my 242.
The trunk switch in the glovebox is just a tad inconvenient...anyone modded it somewheres else?
I'm also interested in power mirrors. and all of the wiring....It runs from the mirros to the fuse panel by way of the controls in the center console, right? The last thing I want to do is get all of this stuff home and realize I'd forgotten something (like I usually do).
I would like to have a 3rd brake light too, to remind those fun truck/Suv/Napoleon complex drivers to please not hit me. I haven't seen any new enough junkyard 240's to have them, but would a 740 part do the trick?
And while I'm at it, where could I find those sweet European headlights with the wipers they had between '80 and '85 ish? Or do I just have to visit a Swedish junkyard...
