A neighbor and I had this problem.

I found the bulb sockets (for the H7 bulb) burnt almost completely away and its female blade connectors (spade style) were quite loose.

The parallel blades of the bulb prevents shorting out so I could crack the remaining thin plastic away. I crimped the spade connectors so they grabbed tighter and used dielectric grease on all contacts.

This stopped our cars ('05 S60, '02 V70) from eating our low beam headlights.

This harness fix revelation is a stunner-CUT A LAMP FROM A VOLVO? Is that "SAFE"?

What's the part number of this 40 quid kit?

Opening the fixture to vent heat is not the way to go.
