Hi everyone, I have scored myself a super rare cargo cover/blind for my 240 wagon. It came with the needed hardware but the holes on the mounting blocks do not correspond to any "pre-drilled" holes either near the mounts for the cross bar for 7 seat option and no holes just inside the back door to secure the blind in the covered position.
I will probably use strong magnet with hooks to hold it in the covered position, hope to get something useful from Bunnings, Ikea or like. I'm not keen on drilling holes in the body.
Does anybody know how it mounts and if it can used im conjunction with the seven seat option?
Cheers ? in advance

If you google Volvo 240 cargo cover there are a few pics. One pic shows it installed with the 3rd row seatbelts visible. I think what you’re referring to as a “cross bar for 7 seat option” may in fact be a cross bar for the Australian market mandatory child seat upper anchors for the 2nd row, but I would have to see a pic to be sure.
It appears that there are 2 small circular cups that mount to the side panel at the front, fairly close to the rear seat back. Then a couple hooks mount to the side panel near the tailgate. The OE part would require drilling holes into the side panel.
Post up some pics and we can try to assist.
