Has anyone changed the metal rectangle interior trim to the drift wood interior trim?

If so, fire away with the pics!

Any other interior mods that people have done?

There is a forum thread over on SwedeSpeed talking about this: anyone ever switched out dashboard trim? | SwedeSpeed - Volvo Performance Forum
Long story short, someone had the dealership do it but nobody has done it DIY and the exact part number for which material isn't known. Best bet would be to talk to the parts desk at the dealership to figure it out if you really wanted it done.

Well, I ordered the rest of the pieces with the Black Friday sale. Still haven't figured out how to properly swap but hoping that I either figure it out or someone else does.

Resurrecting 💀🪦

That’s my thread over at Swedespeed. I actually have all the replacement pieces in hand, but I never got around to doing anything with them. I have swapped the trim in a few other Volvos in the past, but I haven’t messed with this one because it’s my husband’s car and I wasn’t able to find any tips or guidance anywhere.

I had mentioned this quite awhile ago to a service adviser, asking what the labor charge would be to install. He informally spouted off a really high number (just off the top of his head, not really looking into it). I didn’t pursue further at that time.

but now I’m sitting here thinking what a waste it is to have these replacement trim bits sitting around and not using them. The car needs to go in for a big service visit (again) that will surely take at least a few days, so I wrote to them and asked for a real quote on doing the trim swap.

I’ll report back what they say.

This seems like rattles galore just waiting to happen regardless of who does the swap.

 

[vantablack]

Mine was swapped by the dealer when I got the car. No rattles.

Yeah, one piece clips in just as well as any other.

Quoted over a thousand dollars (!!) to do the job (not including the parts themselves, which I already bought) at my closest local dealership.

Fortunately I sit in the nexus of many dealerships within a 30–60 min drive, so I'll be checking around.

Nice, mine looks exactly like this. No regrets

These wood replacements look great but I like the metal look just fine. Also whoever did the installs above (pics) did a nice job it seems. Well done.

thanks. I had the dealer do this one (my husband’s car and I didn’t want to have to tinker with it and break something).

I did a similar swap on my V60 myself

Any reason why? Isn't it just using trim removal tools like most cars?

Don't know, they claimed it was rather involved. Since the XC40 is my husband's car, I ponied up and had the dealer do it so I didn't break something.

Sounds good, I'm looking into doing it now, thanks!

Has anyone done it themselves?
