1. Search the forum. Especially the VolvoForum Resources Thread in the General Volvo part of the forum.
https://volvoforums.com/m_38606/tm.htm

2. Your options are as follows...

a. Keep it stock

b. Install E-code headlight lenses and turn signals

c. Or buy the 850 Chrome or Black Jewels. Which is a complete headlight housing's and lens's and turn signals.

These are your only options that you have.

Pictures

1. E-codes

*These are the turn signals


*Those are the headlight lenses.

Yeah they might not look different then your OEM DOT lenses however they are different. Much differen't beam pattern then your DOT lenses.

2. Chrome and Black Jewels


*These are the Chrome Jewels



*These are the Black Jewels.

For those of you that read this later and ask about projector headlights. There are none made for the Volvo 850 models.

If you want projectors you will have to do a custom Projector Retrofit.

With the E-codes it is just the lenses.

With the Chrome and Black Jewels it is the whole kit.
