The graphic is an art deco version of a storm trooper. You know cause the car is all white and black....

BTW, yes to the big switches.

Diggin' it all but the graphic. I have the stormtrooper look as well white and black but no graphics...they just don't fit on a Volvo. But I am very excited to see the progress.

I like the wheels.

Had the big switches up to 94 1/2 I believe. Later models in 94 made the switch.
