New seats in a HZJ78?

[Pesca]

Any tips for two new comfy front seats for a 78? Was thinking Recaro at first... but the prices. Worth it?

Volvo seats have always been phenomenal. Years ago I lived next door to a cab driver who wouldn’t use anything else. He even installed his old Volvo seat in a brand new E-class.

These German seats keep popping up on my eBay feed:

No relation to seller/item etc and probably not very convenient if you live in the Netherlands but might give you some ideas.

Iv got that in my watch list Jacob, Im interested in the amount of Faffing there is (if any) To get those Volvo seats to fit..The seats in my Old 940 Volvo were the best iv sat in ever... im glad this has been brought up again. Someone was selling a Leather interior from a 100 series, Would that fit straight in an 80?.The drivers seat in my 24v isnt quite right I just cant get comfy, And have been thinking of a swap out (Somehow)...Those V40/V70 seats do look comfy...

Do it. There’s a very helpful Volvo breaker not far from you in Tenterden.
