E-Code headlamp lenses? V70-XC70

posted by  someone claiming to be Holly on  Mon Oct 1 12:45 CST 2018 [RELATED]

Anyone know of a source for new lenses for a 99 v70? would prefer the focused e-code style vs the NA fluted/diffusing type

    Those will be hard to find for a 19 year old car. You could look for a set of glass headlight assembly for a 2004 C70.

          Thanks. I ordered and received a pair of new aftermarket c70 jeweled assemblies. They look great. cannot wait to get them installed and see how much better the lighting is. Brand is DEPO from Taiwan but appear to be exact duplicates of oem stuff.

            That's great. I installed the aftermarket assemblies in my 1998. CAUTION: Don't use the 10mm bolts to draw in the headlight assemblies to the frame, push the assemblies in by hand and just snug down the 10mm bolts. The fitting in the headlight assemblies can come loose, it is just metal recessed in soft plastic, and once the metal starts to turn, it is toast. Don't worry about under torquing the bolts, they will not vibrate out.
