My July 1998 V70 has the fat ones.

Don't know if they were retro-fitted or original as they were on there when I bought it eight years ago. Would the VIN show what was original?

Not that it matters as I have no intention of removing them, but it is good to know that there are two versions that are interchangeable.

(Somewhere in the back of the garage I have a pair rescued from a 740 about ten years ago and never fitted. Must do something with them at some time!).
