C70: - Door edge light

Peterscar · Mar 11th, 2019, 11:39

I need a replacement door edge light fitting for my C70.

I don't know what the correct name for these red lights on the edge of the open door is but assume they are a standard fitting.

I live in France but the only ones coming up on Google are from either the States (reasonably priced) or Germany (expensive !!). Surely they are available in UK !

Can someone give me the proper name for them and maybe tell me the best place to source them.

Many thanks in anticipation.

Peter

Hi Peter,

You can try these, http://www.volvosaabbreakers.com/ They helped me out and shipped me the part. Obviously being abroad may make a difference but give them a try. Good luck.

Peter:~
If it is just the delicate fixing points that have broken on the originals? Then you can cut some thin widths of double sided decal tape (high bond is good) to fit under the lip of the plastic lens- clean the door area & push home. They should now stay in place – if the bulbs need to be replaced at some stage then it is likely the tape will have to be renewed- but not a great problem.
Trust it helps,
Bob

I'd seen this SteveSarre but this price is considerably higher than UK including postage but thanks anyway for your help. Cheers Peter
