V70: Electrical - Question on MY09 V70 with Active Bending Lights

Niw756 · May 8th, 2013, 11:10

Hi all,

I have a 2009 volvo v70 2.4 D5 SE Lux which has the active bending lights, im driving to france with the family soon and have a few questions as i cant find any info on here.

1. Are all active bending headlights xenon? im trying to work out if mine are, they look like xenons in that they have a half dome optic in the unit, does that make it a xenon?
2. What bulbs would i need to replace mine as i have to carry spares in the boot, are these H7's that "car parts for less" are telling me when i input my reg no?
3. What other bulbs would you recommend i carry as spares i.e. sidelights etc and what are they?
4. I assume my headlights have the adjusting lever for using in europe built inside the housing unit i just need to figure out how to access it?

I was hoping to go onto a website like www.carpartsforless.co.uk and just buy a kit to take with me but im a little stumped. and need some help.

If someone could post up some bulbs codes and links with pictures that would really help me as i dont fancy going to volvo ive already spent a lot on my car this year.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers

Nathan
