Tells you how to do it in the handbook,very easy to do and will tell you the correct bulb to buy,which will be about 40p from a car parts shop.

Pop in to your local volvo dealer,you can then oder new handbook!,and they will shange the bulb for you,I doubt if they will charge you any labour as its a 20 second job.

On our 'mini-MPV' - to change any of the front lamp lights - including headlight bulbs - you have to take the front wheel off, remove the entire under-arch protection trim - and then fck about not being able to see what you're doing - to change the bulbs! And yes - this is essentially the method as posted in the manual! This is I guess is on account of all the space-saving that goes on in these cars. And there's me used to a headlamp bulb being something you can change in 2 minutes in a petrol service station!

For one of the bulbs on the other side - you have to unbolt and remove the screenwash bottle to access on of the lights!

Arrrggghhh!!!

on my saab the headllights are a 2 minute job

cars are getting too complicated to fix and then when you take it to the dealers for a simple job you are ripped off!
