Default S70 or c70

Does anyone know here if the s70 or c70 egg crate grill would fit onto a volvo 850?

I was going to order one from skandix but with their recent inflation I decided against it.

Does anyone else on here know where I can get one? Any help would be appreciated as i know this forum isnt a very active one. However always worth a shot.

Hi,

They won't fit onto an 850 - the 850 front end is a lot more angular than these later P80 cars.

As for where to get one, I am not entirely sure. It is a possibility that there are aftermarket ones, and you could graft in the Volvo 'slash' logo if you wanted to from another similarly sized grille, say, a 700 or 900 series, or from a standard 850 grille.

Hope these help.

Plenty in the USA, PartsForVolvos also used to sell one, and there were a few aftermarket ones floating around on eBay a little while ago.
