Let me strip the car first. Then i will know what wiring is hiding at the back of the door panels.
Where Is your location Loki?

Cheers

The electrically-operated ones have switches on the centre console beside the handbrake lever. If there are no switches there won't be any wiring for electric mirrors.
I'm UK-based, in Cheshire.

Going to strip soon... May i know issit possible to get these items ??

What is the correct roof rack for this year wagon..?

Cheers

The "normal" roof rack would be of the after-market type that clamps on to the rain gutters; the very last examples had a satin-black set of bars fitted.

Replacement lenses, as yours has a broken RH indicator, are simple to source. They're secured by 3 Phillips screws; remove them and the lens comes off. I think I've got a spare. New ones are the same for all European markets; North American ones are different.

Hockey stick trims for the bumper corners are more difficult, mainly because the clips are a pain to remove unless you want them to stay on, in which case they will fall off without being prompted!

The windscreen-pillar radio antenna isn't something I've seen in a long time. You might be better fitting one on the back pillar..

Im not really sure of which side mirror is right one for this model. I have been told mine should have the black. Not chrome.
The chassis number is YV1245411B5360xxx.. there is GL Emblem at rear door.

Here is a photo of dashboard view, it has electric window. The top panel, its for radio or instruments?

Regarding the wiper motor, it is same as 244 right??

Cheers

Hi there good to see your new project👍

I’m breaking a full Volvo 240 GLT and I have the black mirrors you need along with plenty of other parts.

You can email me on gsv1985@hotmail.com and I can send you photos of any parts you may need.
