Re: 2008 V70 Automatic window roll-up malfunction

Re: left headlight out with good bulds and fuses
I would 1st check with a volt meter at the head light assembly connection to make sure power is available to the head lamp unit. Do any of the turn signal or parking lights work? There are replacement head lamp assemblies available on ebay for around $180

Re: Headlight lens "UPDATE"
According to the dealership...."there is no way to reattach the reflectors inside the headlight housing". I finally managed to reposition the shiney bulb reflectors by cutting a hole in the top of the housing above the upper attachment point/tab/slot. But I'm still unable to remove the &qu...
