Hi James,

I have installed a Volvo underhood light in my 745T out of a junker my mechanic had. He just wired it straight to my battery and the mercury switch in the light switches it on when the hood opens. Works nicely. I think I'll add one to my other 745 when I get a chance.

My (Canadian) '91 745NA is black and it has the gray interior (cloth seats). Not many of them seem to have the gray interior around here though, which makes it hard to find used interior pieces.

1: The sender is awkward to get at but not difficult to do, Check the 700FAQ'S. I assume the reason you want the sender is because the fuel guage is non functional. If this is the case check under the boot floor, left side, you will find the wires going to the fuel tank and rear axle, verify that the groung is well attached, also with the help of an assistant you can check the guage by applieing(I am aware that the spelling is off but I can't find the word I am looking for in the dictionary) voltage to the wires and watching the guage.
2: is part of the connectors, You can verify if it is working with the lighting connections(if the bulbs light you have ground
3:Never done this so I can't be of help other than to say that volvo's are genraly logicaly assembled, don't use brute force and all should be well
4: yes
5:Almost all colours could be had with grey interiors here in Canada.

No such thing as a stupid question, just idiotic answers

Merci

Yvan

"How do you remove the front seatbelt press button/belt buckle bulb covers without breaking them? Are replacements available from Volvo?"......and can they be removed with the seats in place?

The fuel tank sender is in the tank! On an estate (since you're British like me I won't use "wagon") access is gained by removing part of the boot floor and then removing the plastic neck from the tank. It's fairly awkward. Regards.
