Lower front seat cushion, red.

amazon69 · Apr 5th, 2010, 21:43

Ey up,

Anyone got a red lower seat cushion for an amazon 2 door? They're probably the same as a 4 door...
I know there's a few reds, and I'll find out the exact one soon, but just as a nudge, any out there? One of mine's given up badly along the stitching..

cheers

Dave

If it's only the stitching, either broken or rotted out, they can be resewn easily. Worth a try.
No B20 4 doors and the colour codes changed then so the red may not match either of the 2 common earlier shades.

The number of different reds that Volvo chose to use is very confusing.... Best to post up a pic if you can!

I have a front lower seat cushion that I think is the last red (the slightly orangy one, so probably what you're after) which will eventually be up for sale once I've found a replacement in the correct red (the one that fades to pink...), so if you have no luck elsewhere, let me know.

Thanks both...unfortunately it's not just the stitching...someone bodged a repair in the past by stitching right into the adjoining vinyl..that has now torn the whole cushion apart.
typical about the b20 reds....I will hunt out my colour code. Thanks again.

Found a replacement in the right colour for mine - turned out that I already had one that was ok aside from some stitching.... so the one that's the wrong red is now surplus.

I'm 99% certain that it's late B20 2 door, as it's a perfect match to a pair of backrests with headrests that I have. Let me know if you want some pics
