The door panel parts of a stock GLT-Turbo interior as used in 1981 and 82. Most common in the US in 242 setup, and most common in europe for a 244.
Door cards and seats were stock. Front and rear headrest covers were accessories. I'm still looking for front headrest covers for my car.
 
Got myself a bigger underlip. Seems to be a GT-airdam.

I don't hate the silver color on it, but i'm gonna look for a nicer color.
Problably black with some sort of trim (got the GT interor too).

Volvo 240 H4 Volvo Bosch came in 2 sizes, 180 mm and 165 mm. the 165 mm size as they were called were the size used in North America and called 7" headlights. Each headlight size required a different size ring and bucket size. The 180 mm size used the Volvo number 1215281-5 and were used on the 164 and the early 240. The 165 mm used Volvo number 1212963-1
The reflector size of the 180 mm lights were actually about 40% larger and the lights were not only larger, but quite a bit deeper too.
I found out the difference in size when I bought a set on Tradera Sweden and they were too large for my 242 GL restoration.
