    You must have gotten one heck of a deal on this trashed bucket :)

    All of the switch micro lights are easy, just pull the switch out and take out the white bulb holder, replace the bulb. Autozone Lighting Technologies #2721.

    Does the ashtray have a bulb? DARN! I just looked at my daughter's 1995 and there is a green diffuser, which means there must be a bulb behind it somewhere. Now I have to take out the ashtray! Thanks a lot :)

    The shift light is not fun. The console needs to be removed to get it out, unless you know just where to reach after lifting the console about 1 inch. Watch out for the rear light bulb and wires in the console. The shift bulb is a strange number.

        The ashtray bulb is the same as the shift indicator bulb. At Borton Volvo, they charge 11.37 for ONE (part# 363149-4). The bulb and plastic are one and do not come apart, but it looks just like some of the 240 bulbs... if there is a junk yard around???

        Not a bad price for the east coast. You are past due for a Tbelt and tensioner. Just a little work and you have a reliable car :)

          Since I don't smoke... Expensive bulb... I was going to use the ash tray to store coins, but forget the bulb and I'll just put dollar bills in the ash tray it'll be cheaper...

          Here what I've done or planned so far:

          >Oil Change/ Filter
          >Tranny Flush
          >Coolant Flush, T-stat, Temp sensor and lower hose (planned)
          >Wiper blades all around
          >Fuel Filter
          >Plugs, wires, cap & rotor
          >Swap out cassette radio for CD and add IPOD adapter (planned)I like to see some pictures if anyone has any
          >Tailgate Lifts (planned)
          >Air Filter
          >Add optional cabin filter (planned)
          >Replace door lock pulls with IPD Alum.

          >I'm sure I forgot something!!!

            Timing belt, tensioner and S belt first. If one of those breaks, your car is worthless.
