Clear 2-bulb Euro/Scandinavian Style Turn signals, 850


Hello,

Question:
In the 200/700/900 series, the European style turnsignals
are 2 bulbs type. the lower, yellow bulb is the turn signal
and the upper two filament clear bulb has the 5-watt parking
and the 22-watt for the day running light.

Is this design same for the 850/70 Ecode series? I'm told the
NAmerican version has a single upper bulb becasue of use
of the main headlights fro DRLs here. I'd like to try to get
the true Euro style with the DRL in the turnsignal and save
my headlights for night use only.

There was a set of two bulb units on ebay, they sold for about 90 bucks, including the bulb holders and so forth. I like them too, but worry if I add them to my daily driver, I will have a hard time replacing one if it gets smashed. Even volvoworld.com sells clear reflector single bulb units for 30 bucks a piece/

The e-code 850 turnsignal lens is two bulbs. One for city light and one for turning. Here we have only one bulb to accomplish both.
The e-code version has no orange reflector, and I find the dual bulb set up more visually attractive. I've been trying to source a reasonable set myself.

The S70 and V70 are single bulb turn signals in every market, the only difference being that the U.S. spec. models have the orange reflector.
