interior lights a bit bleugh

[chefshoes]

afternoon

as its the time of year when daylight is in minutes not hours the interior of the car is a bit dim

i imagine im just used to newer cars with brighter interiors but i do wonder if brighter bulbs are available and doesnt upset the car

saw these...

its a 2005 v70 d5 if that helps

worth it or avoid like the plague and if so are brighter bulbs available?

thanks

No real answer for you yet as a Volvo newbie, but I do miss the permanent red centre console downlighting in my BMW 5 series....Will be watching this thread with interest.

my car is too old for the door puddle light as i do like the look of the volvo logo ones you can get

the boot is too dimly lit for my liking and im no leccy genius to put any more lights in

yes brighter bulbs are available but some come with there own set of problems incomparability with volvo electrics flashing / strobeing melted bulb holders ect plenty have done it but is it worth the hassle ?

to be quite honest the only area i do need being brighter is the boot, its a big arsed bit of oxygen that needs a bit to be a bit brighter

might see if something can be shoved into the ciggie light in the boot that i can turn on manually instead

dont fancy sparks and blown electrics tbh
