Hi all,
A few years ago I had a number of reflectors professionally refinished. I have used them for myself on a number of V70s and they were a huge improvement. The refinisher didn't mask the black metal shroud that surrounds the bulb and it was tricky to remove, so that got refinished as well. These units are holding up just fine, and the difference from the tarnished originals is huge. I also have a collection of Volvo orginal not Deepo housings, caps, adjustment motors, clips and glasses. (All RHD). And some stainless caps (Deepo I think). If anyone wants a reflector for £35 including postage and packing please PM me (specify left or right side). If you need other headlight bits, let me know and we can work something out. After I have sent some out I will have a better idea of post and packing costs, so the price may change. Headlights are quite bulky. Payment by PayPal HTH Steve

Don't suppose you have 850 ones, or could perhaps PM me with the name of the company so I can send my 850 ones out?

Sorry no 850s
It was a while ago, and I don't think I have the supplier details any longer. Steve

Hi Dave, did the headlights come with hight adjustment motors or did you have to swap them over with your old ones?

That would be tdidave or turboboy who bought them, I've not got round to mine yet. Although at £70 and recalling other threads about headlights I'd think they probably don't include the motors.

I can confirm that the ones from PFV don't include the motors, they'd be a lot more expensive if they did. However, they're really easy to swap over, so no biggie.

Headlights
As luxobarge says, they do not include the motor but are easy to change over. They connect via a ball-joint to the reflector which you just pop out and push back in.
