US headlights 240/740-60
 
Hello D24t users! today im looking for US headlights for both volvo 700 series and 240,
if you have a set please hit me up with a PM with pictures and what you would like to have for it.

parts have to be shipped to sweden.


btw i new to 200 series and i just got a volvo 245 turbo with GLT hood and sides.
Idk if there's different US headlights for that front other then regular 200 hoods etc.

Cheers

While in EU,I never liked the USA front but now in love with it. Missing the wipers!

There`s Eb@Y seller nicknamed `philski-one`, he`s selling both setups for a crazy lot of money. (=trying to sell) :)

I bought the wagon with old cracked lenses, signals,corners but including a nice condition `eggcrate grill`(black). When I switched to the chrome (`waterfall`) grill, brickers around me said `OMG,so nice, now it looks better!` I was happy with how it looked: chrome bezels w chrome grill,volvo emblem,td sign etc.

Then hit the lottery:) and replaced EVERYTHING with new units: both front corners, both usa signals, 4 headlight Extravision sealed beams etc, and I was told `Hey, looks awesome but could you just paint that chrome BLACK?? to make it perfect looking?`
WTF?! I decided to also dip headlight chrome bezels black + added back the Eggrate (black) grill.
Now bricker friends say `Hey, it looks cool but you basically RAPED your vintage car...`
I said to myself, `Oh thanks. Damn it, whatever they say it does look mean, therefore it stays!:)` so I added very strong LED fogs too. Let it be rape then. You decide what to say now.:)

Another sale was ended last week on eb@y, a guy was selling an entire (USA,240brick) front assembly with all headlight parts plus an eggcrate type 240 grille plus trim pieces, asking $300 for all, in nice cond.I`m 110% sure you`ll find them for much cheaper, so keep your eyeballs stuck on the monitor every night. Good luck!
PS. my high quality sealed beams cost me $16each,signal unit $21 or so,corners around 24?,bosch fogs are also common,chrome bezels are available often on e.Bay or CL for around $25each so dont panic a lot if lenses happen to be cracked OR MISSING.:) High shipping costs often kill big deals.
I`ve seen the b(l)ack frame in junkyards often (usually not taken), I`ll try to grab 2 if seen again.

It`s such a shame this brick owner recently decided to part this Running rarity. Look: http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/pts/4748261750.html

I prefer the blackout look. Badges, not so much.

I have an 84.5 245 D24 with the dual rectangular headlight setup. I will be parting the front end out at some point if you are interested...
