So the 940 and 850 headlamp assemblies use the 9004 bulb?

And removing what I guess is the in-headlamp assembly thingy that serves as some sort of obscuring cap, when 9004 bulb already has one makes it project better, G.G. and Mr. Stevens?

What bulbs do your models of Volvo 940 and 850 use?

Lighting was so much better up to 1986. The (my oft mentioned fave model) 164 with the lower driving / god lamps where the grills over the large horn are also help.

I'm unsure how these newer models of Hikari and Auxito help. Unsure if old or out of date. The view is revolutionary after years of the stupid halogen bulb BS and how quickly these things go dim. Sort of like GE sealed beams in the dual round or dual square or single big round, like on 1976 to 1981 or so 242 DL (luvs Volvo coupes best of all) are so much better, thank get the Hello or the other brand, Bosch and OMDog. I mean dawg. And then these offending 9004 plastibox 9004 housings the corrupt and stupid US DOT required if imported into this county.

So the Auxito, and I'll try the Hikari 9004 as I have two other US market 1986+ 240s, and restored the crappy US Dotty 9004 plasti-housings on those as the adhesive sealing and holding together the lens and reflector body fail (sometimes same happen on your 940s and 850s, yet you have glass lenses more so if newer), the LED is the solution. That thread on turbobricks promotes the halogen bulb myth:

And elsewhere in the form, a result of my bad, misplaced belief.

I still have Waggonmeisters wire harness upgrade with the 100-watt bulbs, yet did not install it. Would moar B+ closer to the LED bulb halps using Dave's harness. The bulb then are museum pieces, I guess.

So please forgive me for not listening when I ask like two or moar years ago. I'm converted, and allslow got LED tail light bulbs for brake, turn, high center third, running, position, park lamps.

Back to naps.
