8th and 9th gen grab rails the same?

[Flippercon]

I wanted to put the volvo sunglasses holder on my 9th but wasn't sure if the spacing was the same as the 8th gen. I check college hills and it looks to be different part numbers. Can someone with an 8th measure the holes for me?

Dar-Dar has an 8th coupe

Holes where the screws go?

Yes, I want to see if they are the same length apart so I can use the same Volvo case.

 

[Dar-Dar]

Distance from one end to another is about 7".

It's not held by screwdrivers, but square metal tabs.

Thank you very much! I am gonna go out side and measure mine and check to see if they are screwed or tabbed.

 

[Dar-Dar]

No problem.

WELLL-LL ............

 

[webby]

thank you for measuring

 

[Flippercon]

Looks to be the same.

 

[Dar-Dar]

Just about.

If they are the same, the total length on both should be around 8.25" and 2.5" tall.

This is a roof handle ? Or where ?

 

[Dar-Dar]

Pretty much. It's located above the driverside window.

Wouldn't mind seeing it if installed .....Not that I have an old Volvo sitting around ..... Just curious

The Drivers Oh **** handle!

 

[Monk]

The Drivers Oh **** handle!

I just figured out that Dar-Dar 's is a Volvo handle, and that's why it doesn't fold like the Civics' ........ Hence where it goes......... Knowing how it hooks up now, I'd probably not pull to hard on it if I did use it.

 

[Dar-Dar]

Actually the 1st time I've touched the handle was probably today when I took it off...

Yea....... I don't use mine either, except to try it when I bought it.......
