07' XC70 Headlamp Replacement

Post by cblackargyle »

Hello,

Can anyone provide instructions on how to replace the front headlamp lenses on a 2008 XC70? They are yellow and need to be replaced. I see V70 instructions online but the front bumper assy is different.

Thanks,

Chris

07 as in the title or 08 as in the post? There was a redesign in 08 so it matters.

AS Erik says. 07 XC was a P2 chassis, and 08 XC was a P3. Appreciate a late P2 may have been registered in 08. We need to confirm what you have to give direction.

A P2 needs the front bumper cover to be removed first to take the headlights out. Don't know about the P3.
