I've got to replace my low beams on my 2008 C70. It does not have the HID bulbs according to the owners manual.
says H7 halogen bulbs in there. 55w. When I put my vehicle in several sites fitment checker they say I need H11 bulbs. So are they H7 or H11?

 

They are quite different. H7 is the high beam on a car with HID bulbs where a H11 would be the lowbeam for halogens. H11 is 1st pic with plastic on the bottom for the connector and H7 is second with exposed connector.

 

https://volvo.custhelp.com/app/manua...nual/om_id/366 says H7 for halogen low beams, but its pretty easy to check (see page 217)

 

Yup sure looks like H7 in the owners manual.

 

The nice thing about these models is that the owners manual actually shows how to swing out the headlight bucket for easy access to the bulbs. A lot nicer than praying for small hands as required on other models :-)
