Talking 1979 estate spare wheel cover, rear seat kit, other parts

After over 20 years, I've finally got my second Volvo, and I'm loving it. It's not perfect & won't win any awards but it's so nice to use… Still, there's a couple of bits I'd like to find, to put my mark on it:

Blue cloth or vinyl 3rd row seating, including belts;

Spare wheel well cover;

Auxilliary switches from the centre console - any would be welcome, but if they made specific ones for fogs/spots that'd be great;

and this is a long shot, but did they ever make a replacement grille with built-in driving lights?

Hi,

Which headlights and grill do you have? There were optional foglamp grilles for the square and round headlight front ends.

I have never seen a blue third-row seat. Such a thing might exist, but most are black

There are also accessory switches for the console, but fairly rare. Keep a lookout on ebay.

Can we have some photos of the car please

Cheers

John

Only recently sold a blue 7th seat kit. I might have a black set left about.

Spare wheel cover have those about

Grill 79 is change over from round to square lights. I think I should still have some grills with driving lights.

Yeah, I have seen blue ones; I could work with black I suppose, but this car has a full blue vinyl interior (currently in storage) so it'd be nice to have matching seats.

Square headlamps, with wipers (that I'm not sure if they work or not... There's no seperate switch?)
