bb54 posted the solution below for an 850/V70 Pq - the catch mechanism & transfer cables are almost identical https://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showt...+bonnet&page=2 You could also try MarvinMitt's post of a how to here https://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=261636 it looks as though the photos are blocked but you should be able to see enough to judge the best way forward. If I get time later today I'll access ViDa to find some instructions and photos.

I think you have to remove the bumper cover - then unbolt the catches - see pictures:-

Isn't that always the way though! Having watched an MOT tester replace a headlamp bulb in seconds, I'm lucky when it comes to changing the dipped beam bulbs, as he did, I can get my left arm alongside the back of the radiator & slam panel to get at the N/S bulb without having to take out the filter box etc.

Even doing the transmission fluid was a pain cause my air filter box has a blooming control management box on it so when it says to remove it and refit it so its out of the way, its close to impossible, i say close because i only just managed to refit it upside down so it was just out of the way to refill the fluid, not an easy task, but i'd rather that than to take off a bumper, its just a pain on ya own
