What's the proper name for the of the red marker lights set into the rear edge of the door card on the back doors of a V70? One of mine is broken so I need a new/used unit but need to know what they're called so I know what to search for.
TIA.

Door open marker lights (Red) could be these:~
If it is the holding catches then a line of double sided tape is just as good as the delicate catch- they need to be pressed lightly in the right direct to release/hold.

Got it in one, Dippydog, door marker lamp - https://www.partsforvolvosonline.com...f0cb96c532c1f0

Be careful when replacing the rears as, unlike the fronts which are attached to the metal skin, the rears are set into the doorcard and need to be clipped home fully but to acheive this you ideally need to remove both rear doorcards as there is a plastic support frame inside the card, you'll see exactly what I mean when you remove it, and tends to be pushed inwards as you fit the lens.

Doh! Bob beat me to it
