burnout8488 Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Post pics! I'd love to see the handsfree kit. Found some pics of the antenna switch kit: How about the electric leveling headlights? Not an accessory I guess, just another market. Looks like the adjusters in our headlights get replaced by servos that are controlled by a switch in the cabin. Trying to get more info about these from some people in the UK, but it seems that even they don't know much about the system. I guess it must not fail much It'd be cool if the wiring could be removed from a UK harness and installed into a US harness. I'd love that feature for HID retrofitting.

I think the hardest part in the Aerial Down switch kit is finding the actual switch. they do not sell the switch kit anymore at dealers. i was thankful enough to find one at a junkyard in a pristine S90. those auto leveling headlights are pretty sweet. i know the ~05 STi's had Leveling switches in the cabin, it was pretty cool. had like 3 levels, and you would see the light dip or raise.

Serge Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 http://www.volvopartswebstore.com/showAssembly.aspx?ukey_assembly=237904 #9. Protective grating = stock skid plate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin. Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Serge, I tried ordering one awhile ago through John Sharp. Out of stock in Europe And yes it is indeed a stock oil pan protector/skidplate. FWIW external lighting kits for 850's (the stock wiring and hardware kit to allow 2 lights in front of the grill) is also sold out. Different story for X70's though!

burnout8488 Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Does new wiring have to be ran to the cabin for the auxiliary lights, or are there plugs behind the bumper cover somewhere? How "plug and play" is the aux light kit? Any pics of them on an x70? Someone should buy them if they're still available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keaton85 Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 How about the AST 5570A service light reset tool?? http://home.onthenet.com.au/~eurosoft/SanTools/volvo.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optimus prime Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Since not even Volvo reports these production numbers you're going to be dealing with a subjective answer that will deliver unsatisfying results for you and your friend. Try the GT leather interior for the C70 (1998-2000) or more recently the linen white leather with light wood on the C70 (2004) or the Volcano red leather. No, if you're talking state-side only, then I'll tell you what it is, the LPG powered parking heater. thats amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Dastardly Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 I've seen one of those in Milwaukee once. I was super confused. My wife had one as a loaner last week.. I had to check the door tag to make sure She hated it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This wasnt prewired in like the foglights on 850s and X70s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
