2000 V70R ECC LIGHT BULBS

Post by scot850 »

I' m sure I have seen a part number to replace the Volvo bulb part# 9454848 which have the long shaft with the small led bulb with the blue gel cover. I know the part # for one of the small bulbs for a lot of the switches is 272-1092, but these are physically bigger. Anyone know of a after-market option that I can swap in for the failed bulbs? I believe there is a possible Radio Shack part # but can`t find it.

Thanks,

Neil.

The 272-1092 part number is a Radio Shack part number, not a Volvo number. With those lamps you get just the bulbs with wire leads and the procedure involves nipping the leads on the old lamps in the OEM socket and then threading the new lamp leads through the socket holes and around the contacts. It is a bit of a PITA but it is a heck of a lot cheaper than buying the Volvo lamps.

The blue filters don't fit tightly on the Radio Shack lamps but I have been able to just add a dab of glue and they hold in place.
