the keys are different too. the remotes are the same though. i cant open my coupe with my wagon remote and vice versa no matter how many times i push the button. once i get in i have it figured out usually so i dont try to cram the wrong key into the ignition.

AAGH! I'm desperately looking for a dash pad with the place for the center speaker and you have one and are not even using it... frustrating!

:lol: I am now my tom tom is mounted to it lol

thats becaused the remotes are programmed to the car ;)

99 keys are programmed iirc, whereas 98 are just straight up keys, thats why the newer ones are bigger. 99 also got electronic airbags in the seats opposed to the mechanical ones in the 98 models

the front cup holder is also different in a 99+

and the grills had a blue volvo emblem in them

whats different about the front cupholder?? it looks the same as the one in my '97R except the plastic is grey instead of black...

regarding the front slash emblem, will the front slash emblem from a '00 fit in a 850? i thought the slash was smaller??

these are some things i noticed that the '00 70 series have that the '98 70 series dont have... (subject says '99, i meant '98)

can anyone add to the list?

-rear armrest w/ pop out dual cupholders (fits 850 too)

-sidemarkers

-map pocket under glovebox

any others?

did '00 come w/ jeweled headlights?

99 was the first year for the map pocket under the glove box, rear armrest w/ pop out dual cup holders, side markers, and 465cc green injectors. ;)

The slash is smaller, but the emblem is the same size.

The front cupholder actually changed in 98 sometime i think. The early ones have a plasic bar that goes all the way around the cup instead of the little plastic flapper. You cant fit anything bigger than a can in them, but they are a bit sturdier, although the rubbers break on both of them after a year or so of use.

that was 99 as well, one of the best things ive done as far as driveablility goes. They are a lil taller but as soon as you use them the first time you forget about that

Awesome - I keep wondering about this, because I want to put one in my '96!

Off to the stealership...

the info center switch isn't on my 98 s70 but was on my 00 v70 XC but for the 00 i think the cigarette lighter was taken out cuz mine didn't have it

info is on my 98R also in my dads 97 850

info was standard on the Xc, anf on the r. optional on the base models.
