I have a 1996 Volvo 850 Turbo and the passenger side foglight canister was broken during last winter. Does anyone know where I can find some instructions on how to remove the full unit? Or where I can find one to replace it? Thanks for your help!!

If you want fog lights that actually shine down the road, check out this site:

Please answer, we need to know if the advice is good or bad. The 164 has a new home, all I am left with are 2 turbos :)

Two 10mm screws hold the foglight in place. Very easy to remove. Contact any salvage yard for a replacement.
You will find the lenses (plastic) very cloudy and this can be made new again. Just sand the lense with 300-400 grit paper to roughen the plastic, then spray it with clear coat paint, 2 coats, and watch it shine!

I bought (stole) a pair on ebay for $15 each! They probably run $50 to $70.
