Default Clear glass lense

Hi there,

I am looking for an O/S clear glass headlight lense for C70 2003. As you know they are not very common. Does one have any ideas where these parts are hiding :-). Can I use lense's from other models, if so which ones.

Any help would be so appreciated.

Cheers in advance

Hi there, speaking from personal experience, i have a 97 V70 with the crystal headlamps/ indicators, the only place to obtain the glass is from Volvo themselves!!i have replaced both sides (stone damage) at £60 a hit!! i dont think there is a 'pattern' glass for these, maybe someone on here could tell you different!!! hope you get it sorted, Fraser,,,,

Hi Fraser


That's not a bad price I was told that I would need to get the whole unit from Volvo,which I do not need. I would need clear glass, which is like searching for the Lochness Monster...apparantly hard to come by. I will give Volvo a call and to see the cost. Thanks for the suggestion

Cheers

Eriner
