Aequitas_Veritas Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 so thiers a plug on the back? you need to either buy a wireing harness (expensive) or use some female plugs from the hardware store and make your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronD81 Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Did they advertise that wiring was included? Lots of places sell just the lights and no wiring, you didn't get ripped off. Wiring is easy to make and there's a lot of posts about exactly how to do it and which wires to splice into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivanfbi Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 I have a set of plugs. It just plugs to the back of the sidemarker, and has about 5-6 inches of wire, so you can splice another one on it and wire it where you want. $20 shipped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PharmD Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 You can get the wiring from Myswedishparts.com, probably Ebay, and I'm pretty sure also FCPgroton.com (don't quote me on that one though - I THOUGHT I saw it there once..)Stephen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattphi Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 i bought mine from FCPthe connectors were pretty expensive. Remember....Wire and solder are your friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the website for Volvo of Richardson, my local dealer. You'll get ripped off unless you know the right people . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Account_Deleted_T5M Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 monkey wiring harnesses. I took the prongs from the sidemarkers bent the fins back, put in the wire and clamped it down. Easy as pie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
