Santa, are you reading this? Hope so :biggrin:
Tint
6 pair Thule or Yak ski holders
Rubber floor mats
Nokian or Gilslaved snowies
Coin holder
And if you've got a few extra bucks, a matching silver C70 convertible for the wife would be nice. :biggrin:
Great choices Coastal! Here are a few of mine:
Integrated rear armrest/cooler
Hands-free cell phone adapter kit
Front mudflaps (I wish)
Prof.Exterior/Interior Detail
and a companion V70 T5 to occupy the other half of the garage...or, I'd settle for a DVD nav. system.http://www.theunholytrinity.org/cracks_smileys/otn/wink/thumb.gif

What's a "snowie"?
Art, I had the detail/protectant applied. Only time will tell if it was worth it.
I'm pretty happy the way my XC is set up, but if I had a wish it would be for a Granny Gear and maybe a little more time to drive her. My wife has all the luck.

Snowies= snow tires. :biggrin:
I'm in the same perdicament as you Lance... I work at home so I don't get as much time behind the wheel of the XC as she does... partially thankful for the fact that I have a 30 foot commute though. http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif
Definately treat your ride to a professional detail, very much worth it. Mine ended up costing 赔 CAD which is basically free in USD! As you've likely read in my previous posts it's worth the cost, that is assuming you can find a true pro!

Hi!
I found a nice accessory for chrismas.
An mp3 player which looks like a normal audio casette. So you can just put it in the Volvo Audio System and you have MP3. This thing can be loaded with 64MB, and has a headphone jack also. Nice.
Ciao

wow, this thread got revived one year to the day!
In terms of an update big guy, I've managed to take care of most of the items on the list myself. You can scratch everything but the Nokians, but I want the WR's instead of snows. http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif:D

Nice heads up on the post Pico! http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Was just over in the Front mud flaps available in oz (http://xc70.com/cgi-bin/ib3/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=1;t=885;st=0) thread and I had this thought: wouldn't it be nice if there was a comprehensive parts/accessories catalog online? Then I would know what I would like in my wish-list... http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hehe.gif
Kind of a meta-wish but what the heck? http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif
Here is what I want:
New 17" rims(maybe next summer)
Extra set of headlamps
Double exhaust(sometime in the future)
How about this, Santa??? I'll be very good... http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/devil.gif

As our XC is only two months old, my list is still pretty basic:
Tints (next week)
Coin holder (stocking)
Elastic cargo net (Christmas)
Mobil 1 (@5000 mile LOF)
Digital tire pressure gauge & torque wrench (@5000 mile rotation)
Front and rear mudflaps (@ 1st rotation)
Reset stock equalizer (as soon as find the time)
But most of all, I wish my wife would drive the pick-up so I can have the XC!
Happy Holidays,
Tom
