I've still got bits left from my 760 and wondered if anybody on here had a 760 they needed bits for. It's mainly stuff like headlights, doors and seats but just ask and I will see if I've got it.

Still on the car when it went to the scrappy, if you want I could get you the scrappy details and you could phone and ask if they still have it?

Thanks but I'm pretty much resigned to forking out BIG DOLLA to get it sorted. Maybe I can scam my insurance company though.

If you don't want to risk breaking it, autoglass might come out and remove it for you.

I will have the local window guy doing some amazon screens for me soon so I could ask him to do it the same time

If you could mate, I'd be desperate enough to come and collect it haha. Is it the 88-on type with the different wiper setup to a 940?

If anybody wants to put Virgos on their 700 I have wheel spacers the previous owner used to fit Virgos.

How thick are the spacers? I would have thought Virgos would fit fine as they're all the same offset. Spacers would help many a rwd volvo wheel fill the arches properly though.

I think it's done due to ABS getting in the way or something like that, I will measure them later and let you know.

Ah, good point, the ABS ring is pretty big.

Spacers are 5mm thick, any use?

It's not the ABS that's the problem, it's that Virgos won't clear the calipers. If you've got a 7/900 with the bigger brake discs (All 760's with vented discs, anything with ABS and 740 GLT 16v/Turbos) then Virgos won't fit.

Does with spacers
Mine had vented discs and ABS and they fitted, I don't 100% understand how spacers meant they could fit though.
