Default S60-V70-S80 parts interchangeability.

Hi all.

I've seen V70's with S60 front bumpers fitted and I know from the middle of the car forwards all the panel work is the same- but will an S80 front bumper fit a V70? are the wings and bonnet the same? Will the headlights bolt in?

It's not something i'm considering doing but I've often wondered how much of the S80 would fit an S60 or V70.

None of the panel work is interchangeable between an S80 and S60/V70.

Thanks for the response.

Does anyone know if the base unit is different? Inner wings etc.

They share the same P2 platform but rather than going through all of the similarities and differences of each car, Vida is the way to go.

If the part numbers match as they do on many mechanical components then go ahead, if they don't match, they're different parts so steer clear.
