1990 Volvo 740 Head Light assemblies good condition.

I bought these to swap onto my 89 740 but apparently its not straight forward, there's some mounting issues that I didn't have time to deal with, I instead fixed my headlight lenses with Gorilla glue and cut up pieces from a gallon milk jug. Anyway here is the lights, they're listed on ebay.. I even...

Re: Headlight Swap Upgrade from dual sealed to 1990 h4 style

Looks like the wiring is the least of the problems. :( I would need to drill 2 holes on each fender,and probably tap the correct threading in for the side marker assembly mounts and enlarge the center fitting for the side marker housings.

Headlight Swap Upgrade from dual sealed to 1990 h4 style

Basically, I needed to fix my turn signals and running light, and Decided to get both lighting assemblies off a 1990 Volvo 740. As you can see my 740 with dual sealed beam lights the housings don't hold up well and in the junkyards the situation wasn't much better, The lights I found on the 1990 740...

Re: Need some advice with Intake Manifold Removal for PCV Jo

Thanks alot, I just saw that people have unscrewed the manifold and pulled the whole assembly it back to the strut tower,sounds simple but that manifold bolt clearance is also tight. I think I will try removing the hoses on the throttle body side and I found that I should probably clean the IAC and ...
