how to remove and replace headlight lens
#3
I just did that on my 2000 S80.
If you're only replacing one side, you only have to loosen one side of the bumper. Otherwise, you need to remove the entire bumper.
- In each wheel well there are 4 rivets that need to be drilled out.
- Mine had 6 plastic retainers above the front grill where the bonnet meets the front bumper. (The Volvo shop guide shows 11 retainers).
- 2 bolts (behind a cover) on either side of the lower bumper grill.
- 2 bolts under the grey molding below the headlights. (Volvo shop guide shows 2 bolts on each side, I only found 1).

2. unscrew all plastic cover under the front bumbper.
3. pull out the front bumbper and carefully uncap all wiring
4. finally u got access for headlight!!!!
do not try to remove the lens by the small clip, the assembly come in only one unit.
