This is my first post because for some reason I haven't found this info elsewhere and I'm not knowledgeable about cars.

Two of my front lights have gone out and I'm looking to replace them without having to take the car to a shop and have them charge me way too much. I know how to take out the headlight assembly and how to change the bulbs but I don't know what the lights are specifically called and therefore don't know which bulbs to buy. Can anyone help me here? I have pictures comparing the two sides. I believe the small orange bulb is called the side marker? The other one is inside the headlight section and is very small but is more noticeable at night.

 

I think it's called a position lamp. What you need is a 5W5 bulb I believe.

 

W5W bulbs. Very common at any parts store.

 

So the W5W is for the more front light and the side one is called the side marker?

 

They use the same bulbs.

 

You just blew my mind sir

 

be gentle taking them out. The plastic socket snaps very easily. Look up a v70 YouTube video by "volvosweden" for tips.
