About the Volvo 240
Volvo built the 240 series from 1974 to 1993, and the 244 sedan was its most common body.
Pre-Install Checklist
Check both B-pillar mounts and floor anchors.
Good to Know
Hardware is included.
Seatbelt Planet makes the pair to order.
Owners who keep a 240 for decades often replace belts as part of routine upkeep.
Blue, tan and gray interiors were common in these cars.
The Volvo 244 sedan stayed in production with few changes for nearly two decades, and its front belts anchor in a layout that changed little over that time.
Volvo's engineer Nils Bohlin invented the three-point belt in 1959, and the company's cars have used the design ever since.
High-mileage 240s often have front belts that retract slowly or not at all after years of dust and sun.
Ordering the pair keeps both front seats matched.
240 owners tend to keep their cars for many years, and fresh belts suit that long-term ownership.
Blue, tan and gray interiors were common, and the color menu has close matches.
Pull each old strap fully out to check for fraying and slow return.
The 240's upright seats and big windows make the cabin airy, but they also let sun reach the belts.
A matched pair of new belts suits a 244 getting new seat covers.
Volvo 244 sedans built in Torslanda, Sweden and Halifax, Nova Scotia shared the same front belt layout across both plants.
The 240's sturdy front seats are famously comfortable, and the belts attached to them often outlast several sets of seat covers.
Owners who use their 244 as a daily driver in snowy climates should check the lower anchors for corrosion before fitting new belts.
A 244 that has been in the family for decades often still has its original front belts, which are well past their prime.
Volvo 240 enthusiasts often maintain their cars with new parts rather than salvage, and new front belts fit that approach.
Volvo 244 front belt latch stalks sit beside the seat cushion, where they can be bent by the seat frame if the seat is moved hard.
Front belts in a 244 that has been through a Swedish-style winter routine of salt and slush may show rust stains on the webbing near the floor.
Matching both front belts in a 244 helps the cabin look consistent for show or sale.
