Volvo 340 parts

Post by alfa200 » 30 Apr 2010 03:13 pm

Hello.

I have a 340 GL, but I need some parts.

Can anyone help me? It's possible to send the parts from the UK to Portugal?
I need the following parts:

1 - front headlight (right)
1 - license plate headlight
2 - chock abservers to the trunk

I have another problem. The signal lights knob don't turn off, when I change the direction. It's easy to fix the problem?

Thanks.

Indeed. :lol:

Is that the pistons that hold up the rear hatch when OPEN?
Or the rear Shock absorbers (suspension)

The tailgate struts should be readily available on Ebay. Isn't the rear number plate light part of the complete lamp assembly as these also appear on Ebay fairly regularly? The headlight may not be quite so straightforward as you presumably drive on the opposite side of the road to us and you'll therefore need a headlamp that dips to the right rather than to the left.

The indicator switch mounting is a common failure item and fairly easy to 'repair' by sandwiching the broken bit with flat washers - well, it's worked for me anyhow.

No Volvo 340 at present.

Your english is very good my friend!

I just have a very childish sense of humour, and I also wanted to make sure we were all thinking about the correct part. :D

numberplate light (aftermarket non-standard)

tailgate struts (expensive)

headlight

A couple of forum members are also breaking (parting out) cars currently, and they may be able to provide you with good condition used parts.
