Thats something that Im not really ready to do, nor do I have the time or tools... I figure its best just to let them handle all of that rolled into one.. I sincerely hope that they will take less than an hours labour to do it.. so that I wont get wolloped with a gigantic bill for it.
I still need the side marker light fixed as I may as well do that while doing this, however I have no way of knowing if its the actual assembley or just the bulb gone bad.. huge difference in cost here.
I suspect this whole thing is going to turn out more expensive than I first thought... thankfully il leave mechanical work to the guy I have in Tampa for that, hes superb and charges a much fairer cost than the dealers..

 

OK let me know how you make out.

 

On a complete side note, did the 2.9 models of the S80 come without the power mirror options? I really cant think of any button to take them in when parking in a tight spot etc..
Under the A/C controls, I have the valet lock button, the STC button and the rear headrest release button but nothing concerning the power mirrors...
Is it that the car is wired for it and the switch just isnt there or was it an option only available to the t6 model
Thanks

 

It was an option for the folding mirrors. Not many had it but it was avalible.

 

clearly mine wasnt one of those special few who received it.... I ordered the original lens from rockauto so very very soon im going to take my car in to get it all done.. I still have to make a few calls... if you ever heard anything about Mike's automotive in tampa, a volvo specialist, let me know

 

Sorry but never heard of them.

 

No problem tech, il still try to find some reviews online... i called the dealer today and apart from not returning my call as promised, to isntall the foglamps and the new headlight lens will cost me over 300 dollars... (i have the parts... just labour).. sounds a bit steep for my taste.. its honestly cheaper for me to drive to orlando and do it by you im sure
