Default Egg Crate Grilles

Hi all,

A few of us like the idea of updating the V40 grille to the sporty egg crate one. Seems like prices on ebay reflect this. I was looking at egg crate grilles advertised for the S40 and they look identical but are priced way cheaper.

Anyone know if they are interchangeable?

Cheers, Nick

As long as they are from cars from 1996-2004, it does not make a difference if it is a V40 or an S40. They are the same. Just be careful you don't buy a the new make post 2004 S40

Sorry Gatos, my mistake. I meant to say S60 not S40! It's the S60 ones that look the same but that I'm not sure about. Do you happen to know about those?

Thanks,
Nick
