2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

I'm on the hunt for one of these after some fool at my apartment complex backed into the front of my Volvo.. i'm yet to figure out who but it cant be too hard considering the vehicle had to be high enough not to hit the bumper also and probably had a towing attachment..
Anyway, the lens is cracked but the lights are fine, I krazy glued the lens to keep it together but its bothering me quite a bit as its the only true aesthetic blemish on the car... Iv been looking around for it and rockauto.com has the genuine lens for 130 and the nordic for about 10 less.. ebay also has generics for about 80... Any reccomendations on when and where I can get this?Regarding the side marker, it doesnt seem to work anymore (not connected to the above incident).. Most markers I'm seeing online are clear and mine are clearly amber/orange coloured.. Usually the ones ive seen sell for between 20 and 30.. however, I dont know if its the entire assembley that needs replacement or just a bulb.... any assistance will be greatly apreciated..Whatever light work I have to do, il just have it done when I install the fog lamps on the S80 (dont come std on the 2.9 model).. do all at once then..Anyway, hope to hear some responses,
ThanksNicolas

If you are refering to the marker light in the bumper, here it is:

http://www.eeuroparts.com/productdet...&code=9498

It is amber and takes a clear marker light bulb.

The corner light is clear with an amber bulb.

I use RockAuto for CHevy parts. eEuro has had better pricing and selection for Volvo parts. The have the headlight for about $90.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Thats a decent price, im just trying to figure out of its the bulb or the actual assembley that needs to be replaced.. Id like to find a way to figure it out, but il see how that goes..

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Do any of you know what bulb will be required for this? Or better yet where I can find it? I went into advance auto today and I had my volvo booklet with me with the socket info and so on, but none of the bulbs actually have the socket written on the pack...
I guess il have to take it out then figure out which...
I dont want to have to replace the assy unless I need to

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

I have a similar problem, is there a way to (safely) replace a broken headlamp lens? The assembly looks hopeless to remove.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

You will pretty much have to remove the front bumper cover.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

I called my local volvo dealer today, and believe this, they quoted me something like 300 dollars to install the new headlamp lens and fog lamps (not counting software update).... that is a serious amount of money so im going to be calling the 1 or 2 volvo shops in tampa to see what they can come back with...
if not, how much would this cost at your place tech, if you dont mind me asking...

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

I would have to check but we couldn't do the software.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Thanks, thats fine.. i could still go to the stealer for the software.. I just rather not pay them to do the actual install.. Would you be able to do the relay and switch also for the fog lamp?
Thanks

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Do you have all the parts already?

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

The only parts I have are the actual fog lamps and the lens.. I dont have the switch or the relay (if needed) for the fog lamp install..
I honestly didnt expect the dealer to be so expensive, this is my first experience with dealers in the US and im not impressed... could also be because there is one volvo dealer in tampa and they can then dictate prices.. its a monopoly i tell you

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Yes it is I will have to see if we can get them.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

I spoke to work today and he said less than $200.00.
without us getting the parts maybe look and see if you can get them.
When you are ready let me know and I will PM you the phone # so you can all and make an appointment.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Thanks tech, the dealers came up to 320 in just labour alone, and the volvo specialist here in tampa came up with 280, plus he himself is insisting that he carries the car to the dealer for the software update rather than I do it...
I', just considering if i come by your place for this, just letting you do all the work I need done at once.. Basically just a tune up where im providing most if not all of the parts.. Also to take a look at the timing belt and pulleys and so on to figure out if it was ever changed.. I have no idea if it was or wasnt before i bought the car

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

That souonds good to me.
Like I said let me know when you are ready and I will PM you the phone #.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Thanks tech, PM the number if you can and judging by my time, il call as soon as I get chance to.
What are your opening hrs on weekends?
Thanks

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Sorry we don't have weekend hours.
PM sent.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Any idea where I can find the switch and relay anyone? If you can help itl be greatly apreciated..
Thanks

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Ok, so far iv found this, http://catalog.autohausaz.com/autoha...amp;part=Relay

Is this what I will need tech? Regarding the switch, no idea where I can find it but i'm guessing that this is the correct relay? How would I know?
Thanks

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Attachment 23934

This is from Volvo's parts diagram.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Hi tech, I found the relay online so I can order that now if anything... I still need a button for it though, any ideas on where i can find this one? If not, im sure we can improvise but i really wanted it to look stock..
Anyway, il keep on looking..
Unless something comes up, next weekend looks like the best time for me to come up to Orlando...

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

The dealer wants 44 dollars for the button but iv been putting out loads of requests on salvage yard websites hoping to get back something on this... Im not sure that they will bother with such a small part though but i figure its worth a shot.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Ok sounds good.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Hi tech, I found the switch cover as a special order after emailing eeuroparts.com... They have it available for 22, roughly half the dealers price, thus allowing me to get the relay and switch from them. Do you know if the switch is already installed in the dash, just waiting for a switch cover? Or do I need some form of electronic switch also..

This is what the guy said in the email

ME:
Also, I have been looking all over the internet for the fog lamp
switch/switch cover for a 2002 S80. I have been unable to find it. The
reason I need it is that I am upgrading a 2.9l 2002 S80 to the OEM volvo
foglamps found on the T6 model, I have the lamps and relay but no switch,
where can I find this? Thanks

Him: The button is available for $22.10 but it is not clear from the catalog if
the swith is already there from the factor or not. No other part number
other than the headlight switch assembly.

Whats your take on this?
Thanks

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Hi again tech, using the catalog you sent me, he has the first part number in stock, 9192145 but neither of us after 10 minutes on the phone are sure it is the exact one that I need.. The catalog is not very clear on this and I dont really have a means of telling which of these buttons is the correct one for me.. Il call the dealer and see if they are of any help, but the odds are that they are going to ask me to come in seeing as they are quite hopeless via phone.
Thanks

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Ok, for the 3rd post in 10 minutes, I spoke to the dealer and apparently its the correct part... but get this, as its a special order part, eeuroparts orders it from the dealer up in CT, at a cost of 22 (including their markup) but volvo of tampa is selling the identical part for 44! Thats crazy! So il give Dean from euro a call in the morning and order that switch cover and the relay and seeing as I already have the fogs, my car is on its way!
They claim about 30 for the software upgrade on the car... let me just hope that the labour isnt too mean on it...
If possible, seeing as you know the volvo dealers up in orlando, if they have better rates we can have them do the software upgrade while they are cutting and coding the key and the remote...

Thanks for all the help so far and we will keep in touch

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Yes the blank cover should just pop off top receive the switch cover.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Well, I just finally got that button ordered and the relay, they say it should take a week or so to get the part from volvo and then to me.. so I dont know how this will effect the plans for saturday (ie. if we were going to do the work on the car)..
i figure i will just have to wait and see how long it takes and then decide from there.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

It looks like I just have bad luck as of late, anything i try to do to save some money I end up finding a cheaper alternative after.

Looks my myswedishparts.com had the part for about 3 or 4 dollars cheaper and can get it to me much quicker... Once I save money on what the dealer is charging im glad.. .scary thing is these sites have it as special order items, which come from volvo dealers but they can manage to sell for less than half that of the dealer here in tampa. Anyway tech, that piece of the parts catalogue you gave me helped immensely..
Thanks

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Glad I could help.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Im starting to notice condensation in both of my lights.. obvously the cracked one would have in it but the other shouldnt... is it possible that when they hit one light, they may have slightly dislodged the bumper, leading to there being some kind of gap in the undamaged headlight? I tried using rain-x on it but it really didnt make a difference...
sometimes i noticed that just half the light actually fogs up but other times the entire thing... jsut a bit annoying and is nothing too serious really..

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

It might be that or something else is not sealed good.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Hi tech, i got the parts today from eeuroparts.. finally.. its the correct relay but im not so sure about the fogs.. From my understanding, it was the small button that would cover just the half of the switch dealing with the front fogs as i already have the button for the rear fog.. however, it is the wide button that will file the entire slot for both, is this how it is in a regular s80 t6, rather than 2 separate buttons?

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

By the way, forgot to mention, but they gave me the correct model number that we ordered, so its possible that I may have ordered the wrong part (just going on what advice volvo of tampa gave me and the diagram you gave me)

Thanks

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Here is a picture of the switch...

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

That looks like it.
It will replace the dummy plate on the left side bottom of the headlight switch.

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Well thats what im wondering about, the button for the fogs is split half half with thr right have being for the rear fog lamp, and the left half being the dummy... but this is twice the width of each of those halves, so im guessing it will work as once i have the frong fog lamps on, the back will automatically be on also? Is this how it works in the s80 t6 when the fogs come stock?

I was actually expecting a half width button like the one i alreadu have to fill in the dummy plate...

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

There was 2 different setups.
One with the big buttons like the one they sent you and the Half and Half setup.
Can you snap a pic of your headlight switch and post it?

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

Ok tech, in the morn il post pics cause its raining out(lightning and so on)... and the same by you i think... il get that done and show you it, but mine is the half and half for sure... but i caught enough trouble to find this part, if i have to find the half small switch, itl be even more trouble! I can always sell this one on ebay if it isnt the right thing

RE: 2002 S80 Left Headlight lens and Left side marker
 

This is the piture of mine, as you can see its the kind of half half setup so im not sure how this is going to work out

let me know what you think,
thanks
