Lightbulb Light bulbs for the switches that go along the dash...

Did you know that your dash control switches have light bulbs that are probably burned out?

Went to purchase light bulbs that go in the dash switches and was told by my local dealer that they were over $18 each. Are you freeking kidding me???

So the hunt was on. I was able to purchase them in bulk and need to unload the extras to get my money back. You can get them from me for less than $4 each. Please purchase a few. Click here for details:
Volvo Dash Switch Light Bulbs for 850, 940, 960, S90, V90, S70, and V70's.

Default Are these still available?

Can you please contact me if these are still available? I have a slew of bulbs out in my dash & radio and I am going to attempt to replace them...!

I'd need the bulbs with the casing.. I'm not an electronics guru and I have no idea how to solder!

Thanks
Joe

How difficult is it to change the dash bulb that you sell and is there a diagram you can reference?

Which "dash" bulb are you referring to? Behind the cluster? In the switches? In the ECC control?
