Good post tt82,well done. Hopefully it will allow many more owners to replace their bulbs without driving around for weeks on one headlamp.Certainly the case in Kent as virtually no traffic police to deter drivers ! I did wince when you quoted the price Volvo are charging for D1S bulbs. They have gone up a lot since I had to replace mine a year ago , they were £103 each then ! I sourced some on the internet for £28 for 2. They are brilliant, pun sorry ,light the road well and don't dazzle oncoming drivers. I also bought a spare set from e-bay for £8-50 delivered from China . Tried them and just as good now back in reserve. Even if they only last a year its still a BIG saving on Volvo price.
Keep on posting.
