Volvo 260 GLE Doom Trim

JoelD

Hey All - trying to locate the silver door trim pieces just below the window for my rear driver side door.

See the following pictures to clarify, where the driver side is missing this and the passenger side has it present

Having some issues finding this as any search for 'Volvo 240/260 door trim' gives the waist height trim.

Any assistance or even just the right name for the trim piece would be appreciated, Cheers

This trim is specific to the 260 I believe, the 240s have just a window scraper/rail and black vinyl wrap to give a similar appearance. The only person I know with any 260 bits is @DCW242

Yeah I pulled my GT’s 1981+ stuff off a non-running (PRV Lyf) but straight/complete/unrusty ‘82 264GLE. I’m pretty sure it had this stuff, BUT I also suspect any time you’ll find it it’s going to have the black ?anodised? aluminium trim piece attached, I doubt you’ll find just the shiny/chromed part by itself.

260 wagon would have to be hella rare, don’t suppose you have a thread with photos that us online Volvo pervs can ogle over?

PS. I feel the need to make some sort of PRV-related pun regarding “doom trim” … but nothing springs to mind …

There are 7 clips that hold the trim piece on there, p/n 1304495-3 - these may be hard to find.
Then there's the trim piece, p/n 1255837-5 [old # 1255838].
