I recently purchased some hard to find parts for my 1983 242 at http://www.volvooemparts.com and want people to know that their website is really good with exploded parts diagrams and other info. They also allow searches for models back to 1975 which is unusual online. The folks there responded rapidly and accurately to my queries via email. And their prices were about half the price quoted me by my local dealer's parts department - which is also a great resource and deserves at least some of my business. If there was a way to search by VIN (which I think the dealer can do) that would be useful. Anyhow, enjoy!
