1983 240 LH headlight

Jackson

Hi guys,

I'm looking for a LH side headlight for a 1983 240 GL. I'm in Caboolture, QLD.

Cheers,
Jackson

I may have one.
I'll confirm tomorrow.
I'm in VIC

$20 + shipping to you.

Jackson

Oh damn, I had a bit of a brain fart. It's actually the RH side headlight I'm after. If you've got one of those, I would be very grateful. Any ball park figures for shipping? I'm not very familiar with posting things. And I'll just have to check with my sister, since it's her car.

Thats ok.
I definitely have two leftover headlights. Not sure if they're 2 lefts, 2 rights or one of each.
I'll take a look and let you know.

I have one also but I painted the buckets black. Similar price to move it on.

I have good lenses if that's all you need, and I think I have a couple of housings left. No reflectors left unfortunately.

Asking $20 for a lens, plus postage.

AshDVS

I have both a RH and a LH. Both are dusty but usable.

LH one has a broken plastic clip that holds the reflector in place - I could easily steal one out of the RH one to replace it.

LH one has the inner (grille side) trim for an '86 onward car fitted to it to.
Glass is Cibie/Genuine Volvo.

Hey Ash, I would be happy to get the RHS off you (just to be clear, I noticed that both pictures were LHS, but I need the RHS). Also, I'm looking for trim too, if you have it. If you want to, you could take out the reflector to keep, and throw in the trim instead. I'll show you what my sister's car looks like, just to clear things up.

Cheers.

My bad, I didnt read your 2nd post.
RH one is much the same. I do not have the trim though.
My 240 was a '86 on car with the trim that solely runs across the top of the light.

I'll pop some more pics up tonight.
Grab the little white clips out of your light before you through it away.

The headlight housings differ slightly from '86 onwards, the screw holes for the trim are in different positions to suit the later two piece trim. It may be possible to fit the earlier trim to the later housings if you don't use all the holes, but I've never tried it myself.

I have an early housing and a lens in good condition, but no trim.

I should have trim if needed, I can give it to Angus or Ash to post with other stuff.

AshDVS

Here are the RH ones - there is an indicator housing clip broken from the body and it needs (aside from a clean) the white plastic clips I already mentioned.

I actually thought it was better than this.
Up to you whether you want it, I'd probably prefer you bought a decent one from Joe or Angus.

Jackson

Thanks for the help, Ash. I think I might grab the pre-86 stuff off Angus and Joe, just because I need the trim too. Sorry, I should've mentioned that first.

AshDVS

Dont be sorry. No problem at all. Both will have what you need. Joe is downsizing his parts cache.
My 240 spares collection is all but gone now - nothing left as far as trim parts are concerned.
