Since i dont own any thing besides a point and shoot, my friend came over to shoot some shots with his camera. Nothing spectacular, everything better than my cell phone pictures.

Thanks Henry!

Nice! Did you swap out the tailights of your xc90 with the newer model lights? I seem to recall yours having the older style. And im guessing the newer ones are direct fit?

i did swap them out, no a direct fir on my 03, when others have asked me about them...then others that did it on their xc90's but different years say it was a direct swap in. NONE had done it from a 07 into a 03. It seems like 03 are different than 04/05. I know that my 03 with 07's swapped in was NOT a plug and play thing using the 2003 harness into a 2007 housing, now that i think about it, a 2007 harness and a 2007 lamp will just plug into the 2003 socket back there.

it just took 2 years for me to realize this just now as i was responding to your post!! LOL WOW!

I had another question about your xc90. The first time i saw your xc90 was when you posted the photos of the dual exhaust you installed by obx. I noticed then that you have a towbar/hitch of some sort but it looks to be very smallish and not the usual one that bolts to the frame. Is this the case of am i not seeing the whole thing in the photo?

Here is the photo that I am talking about of your car. Hope you dont mind me posting it :) . where did you get this hitch from and what can be towed with it?
