Whichever way you decide (repair/rebuild/new Volvo parts/leave alone) it will all be part of GAMs patina so from that persepctive, it's all good. Quote:

... actually it isn't too bad, and at least will stop moisture getting in for the time being. Here is how the BT receiver/amplifier turned out with the original speaker: ... as you may see, it is very unobtrusive and it works very well with my iPhone. :-)

Just noticed, you're only 30 miles from me Othen. I am just across the country line into MK borough.
Do you get to many local club gatherings?

By retractable belts do you mean seat belts? I don't have any in the back, just the C130 style ones in the front (reminds me of... Airborne!): Alan

Make sure that each rear speaker is isolated from the other, with no path between. Also make sure that there are no holes through the surroundings (into the boot etc) , otherwise you might hear the speakers moving air. The body of the shelf is MDF and the three triangular supports are ply as this does not split when you screw into the side face. The shelf is secured from inside the boot (through the original parcel shelf) with 2 screws into the centre rib and one screw into each outer rib." Yes retractable belts, Volvo started prepping the cars for them so they could be installed, maybe 1966. The reels are mounted under the rear parcel shelf on a plate and the web comes through a slot in the parcel shelf. You can replace the front statics quite easily and you can keep the the clip mechanism on the tunnel as well: https://youtu.be/nr3GLOiq4pc I have original 140 retractables in my 142 which use the same clip as the AMazon but have never seen another pair for sale so assume like hens teeth.
