Front interior light
I have been upgrading my interior lights to LED on my 2009 V70 2.5T and when I removed the front panel I replaced the 4 bulbs. But the front ones do not work. They did not work before either.

The LED's are new. I have got one of the round lights working, so maybe the bulb holder or its contact with the pcb.

I have done mine successfully. I did find on my 2011 V70 that the push-and-turn-to-lock bulbs fitted didn't work when swapped with LED equivalents. I had to buy good quality LED w5w T10 bulbs and push them into turn-to-lock socket adaptors (a Ford part I seem to remember). All worked fine after that. My wife's C30 roof light looks to be the same as the V70, however the bulb holders were already T10 push fit, so replacing the roof light console with a more recent one is another approach... if all else fails.
