v70 t5 / 2001 / interior light bulbs

egg9612 · Post by **egg9612** » 25 Nov 2008, 12:06

looking to see if there is web site, or help to replace failed light bulbs on the interior...
my air control, just below the radio, has at least two bulbs out
any DIY so I can avoid the $300 from the dealership to replace a $4 bulb
wondering if diagram for what 'pops out' and what must be unscrewed, in order not to break anything
any help is greatly appreciated!

Welcome to Matthew's Volvo Site.

I posted the how to for the S80 yesterday in the above topic. It is the same for the V70 except for one additional step. Remove the pen holder by prising it out with weatherstrip tools.

If you have no radio lights out you can omit that part.
