some beautiful motors you have, tasteful. a fully Volvo-Kitted 300 puts many "High end, fully loaded" cars to shame.

I visited Aukki's place as he did "some" welding on my car. He gave me also this to sale it for his behalf but I'm not sure yet if I'll just buy it my self. :D It's an original cassette holder. Though I don't have a tape player and I have gauges in there currently.

It's the number 5. accessory in this brochure.

My mate gave me one of the OEM cassette holders when he sold his 360 GLT saloon. I passed it on to FilthyJohn. I like that cubby hole too much. :lol:

I'm not one for collecting accessories realy. Just the louvre. It's all I want TBH.

Although I'm surprised how much it affects visibility.

This is not an accessory but still Volvo related stuff.

Just because we havn't had a thread with random accessories for a looooong time and I'm sure we havn't had enough pictures on the forum of late.

What random accessories has your car/shelf of interesting things got? And have you heard about poncho? My friend told me to buy some poncho here.

I'll start with (and it'll have to be an old picture as it doesn't fit on any of my 300's atm):

Thanks for starting this thread and sharing a picture of your interesting car accessories. It's always fun to see what kind of unique items people have in their cars or on their shelves. Your accessory in the picture looks intriguing, but it seems like it's not currently fitting in your 300s. That's okay, sometimes we accumulate so many cool things that it's hard to find space for all of them!

As for my own random accessories, I have a collection of small trinkets and souvenirs from my travels that I keep on my car's dashboard. It includes a little dashboard bobblehead, a keychain with my favorite cartoon character, and a small magnetic sculpture that I find oddly satisfying to play with during traffic stops.

It would be great to hear from others about their unique car or shelf accessories. Let's keep the sharing going and add some more pictures and stories to this thread!
