Hello All,
I just replaced the interior bulb for the ashtray on my 1999 V70 AWD XC Wagon. It is a clear bulb, with a black plastic base with two metal prongs. The part number for this bulb is # 3545170. I believe the same bulb is used on the 850 ashtray too. I had two bulbs in reserve and now I have one. I called my Volvo dealer and it wanted $31 for a single bulb. I looked at FCP Euro, iPd, Inc. and EEuro Parts and the cheapest price without shipping was $20. I looked on Amazon and Ebay and the prices quoted were higher.
I use these bulbs on my two 850 wagons and my XC, so I like to have spares. Can anyone recommend a source where I can obtain these bulbs for less than $20 each? It seems a ridiculous price for a bulb that is probably mass produced. Thanks to all who respond.
Hugh
