My '93 doesn't seem to have pollen filter. I have checked above the
passenger side of the car and there is an opening for some sort of a filter
but there is no filter housing etc. I went to Volvo dealer and got a filter
eventhough they were not 100% sure if it would fit on 93. Part number on the
box is 91712296. On the invoice it says the part is 9186262. The one I got
seems to be too big. Is it possible that I have wrong part? Do I need some
sort of a mounting kit to mount it on the opening first? I followed this
link (under repairs/filters/pollen filter)to check for filter but not sure
if '93 850s had this option.

Also I noticed some people using customized furnace filters. Does this
really work?

Thanks for any suggestions.
 
You will need the installation kit the parts department should have asked
you if there is a pollen filter already installed so they could have sold
you the correct items for your car

They apparantly messed up the part number on the invoice.
9171296 is the pollen filter
9186262 is the air filter

When you dont have a pollen filter already, you need a complete package of
both filter and adapter, thats part no. 9192522.
Next time you replace you only need the filter 9171296.

So you need them to take back the filter you already bought and exchange it
for a complete package.
