'05 V70r Equiped With Wrond Front Turn Signal Bulbs.

[Andrew]

Hello, I acquired some replacement Bulbs from Evolve for my '05 V70R...Both Evolve and my Volvo owners manual tell me that the PY21W is the correct one for the front Turn Signals. however upon removing them to swap out for the new bulbs, I find that the Bulbs are 1157Y and the socket is setup for this other bulb and not the PY21W Bulb., The PY21W has only a single contact on the bottom as the 1157 has two electrical contacts?...I have owned this car since it was new with 65 miles on it...The car has never been wrecked.

Anyone else have this issue or know why this car is different than the manual and most other bulb replacement guides?

Thanks

Andrew

i know yer pain, every time i go to get bulbs shops tell me im buying wrong ones. I tell em i know what they are and just get em outta the locked case and let me pay. They tell me no no, you dont have h7 headlights, i tell em i do, dont worry about it. (btw i dont really have problem with the headlights its the fogs). When getting fog lights, these guys, depending on the place, will tell me i have every other one except what im trying to get.
