He can ship it to me, but I’m a bit out of the way from AMS.

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?


I put a Bluetooth transmitter in Blue Steel to play music and make calls, and it amuses me to no end how it broadcasts a short digital jingle through the car speakers upon startup — just like a modern automobile!

Maybe even funnier now that I just got historic plates for it.

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?

I’ve spend over 100 euros for 3 sets of yellow bulbs and compared which was the yellowest.

The result is:

1. PIAA
2. Nokya
3. Hella


Hella bulbs came in today and compared to piaa, the colour was more incandescent colour than a yellow colour.

Left side is piaa and right side is hella bulb.

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?

Installed yellow bulbs for all the lights.
Fogs are nokya h1.


Left h7 bulb is nokya and right h7 bulb is piaa.
I tried to edit the picture to show the difference in yellow.
Right side, piaa, is more yellow.

Strangely, the h1 fog bulbs from nokya are yellower than the nokya h7 bulbs

Pulled the headliner from the junkyard and also took out the dashboard to the easily pick out the cabin sensor, heater fan, resistor and heater flap modules.

Transported the headliner by resting it on top of the headrests.

For once I’m glad I’m short.

Re: Site downtime Sept 3 2026

Thanks for your hard work!

Is it an idea to make the board only viewable when logged in? Or would that hinder attracting unique visitors, since there’s an extra step involved to view the messages.

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?

The third row seats looks hilarious when the tailgate is open. Looks like you’ve stuffed a coach in there for transport.

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?



Has anyone ever transported a headliner from a wagon?
Found one in good condition at the local junkyard today.


I would use a trailer. Cover it with a blanket a hold it down with bungee cords.


I spent 1 1/2 hr removing my headliner. I’m going to temporarily install the other one and clip ...

There’s another on top so it’s blocking the tailgate from opening. Instead I got some other parts, but I do want to go back for that headliner.
