My wife had a stone crack her outer glass envelope, and I was going to attempt to replace this by itself, but it's very hard to get just this part in North America. I managed to do so through an excellent local shop, but when I went to replace the glass, I gave up after trying to figure out how to get the old one off. I ended up taking it to a Rousch employee and he told me he had to take the bumper cover off (screws on the bottom) just to be able to get at other screws that needed to be taken off. He said it was quite involved.
I just changed my headlight and sidelight assembly today. It wasnt very hard it took my friend about a half an hour. The whole thing pops out after a little wiggleing but there are side screws that are difficult to reach. we popped out the side reflector in order to reach one and just popped it back in when we finished. Anyone that has worked on car can figure this one out by looking at it. Just remember that your smaller side light sits in the assembly also and will have to be unhooked also.
No you do not, there are 3 bolts you need to remove in order to take out the headlight. Don't remember off the top of my head where they are located but you should see them. I think they are 12mm bolts.
To replace the headlight on a Volvo V70 you first need to remove the mounting bolts that go through the radiator core support. Remove the assembly with a ratchet and socket. Next, remove the locking collars from the back and remove the old bulb. Replace with new bulb and reverse directions.
Begin by removing the wiring harness from the back of 2004 Volvo headlight. Remove the headlight assembly retaining bolts. Reverse the process to install your new headlight assembly.

It is quite a chore. The various Volvo forums have detailed instructions, the quick answer is you have to pull the front fascia off the car to get to the lens assembly. Once there, there are some clips that hold the lens on.
this web site is awsome
Open hood, look at the back of the assembly and locate the 4 hex bolts that hold the unit in place. Remove the bolts, slide the unit away from the body, and disconnect the wiring harness. You can also access/remove the turn signal unit when the headlight assembly is removed by sliding it forward and disconnecting the wiring harness. Reverse the process to install. This reply is good for both the 1998 S70 and 1998 V70 with headlight wipers. Note that there is a tab along the bottom edge of a headlight assembly for the wiper blade to rest upon.
it's located beside the passenger side.

Begin by removing the wiring harness from your 1983 Volvo 240 turn signal lamp. Remove the turn signal lamp assembly retaining bolts. The turn signal lamp assembly will come out. Reverse the process to install the new turn signal lamp assembly.
Forget it. I figured it out.
Hello, Could you please tell me how to replace a headlight bulb, on a 2004 Volvo S80 T6. Thank You So Much!! Open the hood. On the back side of the headlight unit is a round cover. Give it a twist an it will come off. unplug the electrical connector from the bulb then release the two spring wire holders on either side of the bulb. Install in reverse order but DO NOT touch the glass part of the new bulb as oil from fingers will shorten the life of the halogen bulb greatly.
