I had a set which I sold about a year ago. They were accessory-only (well...plus the odd special edition, I guess) in the UK.

Re: Parts stash: Leather, shocks...and others...
yep, bazboy has them too.
they are called luclucs because Jean-Luc had them on a saloon a few years back, then he bought this 340 b14 5 speed with 518***km on the clock, engine died at 520.000; if the oil pump was checked a bit sooner it would have still lived today. has lpg so it likes seeing a lot of miles
here in hands of a new owner and on it's way to 600.000km:

Ive never really liked them, but just now when i realised that they were 'rare', I completley changed my mind and nearly pmd dan to see if he still had them.
Now i know he hasnt, i just feel like a tool.
Why is 'rare' immediatley desirable??

Just re-read this:

520Tkm in a B14? That must be worthy of a world record. Out old 343 Junior was seriously tired at 229000kms, and it already had it's second head on it at that time ...volvodspec wrote:...then he bought this 340 b14 5 speed with 518***km on the clock, engine died at 520.000; if the oil pump was checked a bit sooner it would have still lived today. has lpg so it likes seeing a lot of miles...

Hmmm, seem to remember some bloke Lincs way offloaded them in last year's snow...
And yes, the seats do seem to heat up on occasions!
Calm down now.
