Check you rear turn signal bulbs - not amber anymore? 850

For those of you who have not discovered this already, the original Volvo rear directional bulbs tend to lose their amber coating after a few years. You may notice that your turn signals are practically bright *white*.

The Volvo replacement bulb is close, but not quite the same as a common 1156NA. Rather than buy the expensive Volvo bulb, you can make an 1156NA work by filing off one of the bayonet pins.
