looking for instruction to change headlamp assembly S80 1999

posted by  someone claiming to be n0v8or on  Mon Jun 16 13:12 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Someone posted these instructions on a Volvo forum over a year ago. I saved the instructions for reference, but have not yet needed to use them.

"The front bumper has to be partially removed on one side to replace a headlight assembly or glass.

Start by removing the upper clips that retain the glass to the headlamp shell.
Next, drill off the 4 plastic-headed rivets inside the wheel well (have new rivets and a rivet gun handy for re-installation).
Remove the headlight wiper arm, the black plastic cover (bumper trim) just below the headlight (just pull it off carefully), and the side marker lamp (which is attached to the black cover).
Remove the turn signal lamp assembly (push down on the release tab from the top next to the headlight, then slide forward).
Remove the 2 plug covers in the lower front area of the bumper, and remove the bumper retaining bolts. The bumper will now slide forward enough to remove the remaining clips that retain the glass to the shell."
