Replacing the Rear Headlight Bulb

Model: Volvo S70 MK 1 - Years 1996-2000
Part: Tail light bulb

Open the rear bonnet and ensure it is securely supported. Remove the carpet cover on the side trim panel: at this point, you can see the bulb holder of the rear light. Press the tabs and pull out the bulb holder to replace the bulbs (they are fitted with a bayonet system: you must press and then twist to remove them). Once the bulb replacement is complete, reattach the bulb holder and reposition the carpet cover that was previously removed.
