Where is the best place to buy these side mounted turn signal. IPD has them for $108 pair plus $30 for the harness. Borton has them for $39 each (x2) and will through in some wires and clips to make so you can make your own harness. Anyone know of a better price? Some have said dealers in Canada sell them for $15 each.

Yes! Here in Canada thay are @ that price and they are in Canadian funds too!
They arel clear len with an amber bulb. There howere is on problem and that is most Volvos are not pre-wired for the marker light to connect with the signal light beside the front headlight. Plus being a Volvo Club of America member (VCO), I get a 15 % discount ontop of that price!
As for the wiring of the side turn marker lights you can order the wire harness from IPD for @$30.00 or do what a Brickster named Leo did and went to the auto store and purchased a package of female bullet shaped connectors and some shrink wire wrap (to protect the bullet terminal connections) and with the other end of the wires (+ and - wires) connect (splice) into the wiring for the other front turn signal.
John if you are interested in the purchase of a set of them babies, please contact me via my e-mail link and we can work something out. By the way I do not charge service charge (Your package will be mailed to you in the U.S. No Customs
Chrap!). Because I'll be on vacation soon!

I think that you will find that the cheap price in Canada was a very temporary thing - when I checked a few days after the posting a while back, the price was kup to the normal rediculously high prices that everyone else has. However, interesting thing is that US Volvo dealers can order these now. My local dealer just received about 30 sets of them on a normal stock order.
