Spoiler
Will a spoiler off an 850 saloon fit my 940? Been looking at images and I didn't realise just how similar the two models are.

I imagine it would, with some minor modifications to mount it properly/neatly - after all they are both basically rectangles with wheels
BTW i have an 850 style spoiler which is supposedly designed to fit the 940 from ebay germany. Since i'm now selling my 940 PM me if you are interested - I can test fit it on mine if you want. 2 birds and all PP |

Sorry, just spotted the saloon part - ignore the bottom bit (mine is an estate)

Re the OPs original question, the S90, 960 and 940 boot spoilers are all the same, not sure on the 850. https://accessories.volvocars.com/en.../all/all/R.H.D That link covers the 7/9xx models. This link covers the 850 (and others) but the part numbers are different for the boot spoilers : https://accessories.volvocars.com/Le...R_GB_NL_DE.pdf Lots of toys available, at least when new!

No the 850 ones are about 2 inches too short.
I have an 850 one in my parents' shed that I got to fit to my 940 - but it just won't fit - even with custom brackets. Cheers

I got one from a v90 which I'm hoping to attach to my 760 with some sort of adhesive to avoid driving the tailgate, anybody done this before?

The V90 is narrower at the top than the 7/9xx estates so the spoiler will be as well. Also i'm not sure there will be room for the spoiler when you open the tailgate - worth double-checking!

My mate is a classic car panel beater and he could probably extend it to fit if it is the right shape. |

Also the spoiler is fibre glass or plastic so not entirely sure it could be beaten into shape Cheers
