Car Forum / Volvo Cars / October 2004240 Seat backs..interchangeable?
Do I remember someone in here saying that 240 seats have interchangeable backs? I just got a second hand one from a scrappy to replace the broken backed original. My original seat base is in much better nick that the replacement. Can I mix and match? With that adjuster wheel I get the impression of the old "alarm clock syndrome" where if you undo the wrong bit springs and bits ping everywhere.

Cut the wire rings holding the upholstery on and roll it up a bit, you'll see the bolts on each side that hold the seatback to the base containing the adjustment mechanism. There's 3 bolts on each side then the whole back assembly comes right off. You can even mix and match the later style seatbacks with the early style cussions and vise-versa but the upholstery is unique to the seatback style. When you're finished, use those little nylon zip ties to hold the upholstery back down. Brilliant! Thanks James, just the job!
