Well, after months of saving money and then having (not choosing!) to spend it on something else, I finally got around to buying some projector headlamps and matching indicators (courtesy of Spesh - cheers fella). They arrived this afty so, as soon as I got home from work I set too. Only took me 20mins on each side! The fiddliest bit was changing the sidelight bulbs to ultra white ones which required a pair of needle-nose pliers.
They totally change the look of the car!
I will pop some piccies up when I get round to taking some as it was getting a bit dark by the time I finished.
Well worth it though!!

After postage, nearly £200. I'm pleased with that though. They'll set you back a fair bit more new. Parts For Volvo stock them,

There is a seller on eBay, username is takajos, who sells them, and considerably cheaper than PFV.

One thing I'd recommend is fitting Volvo headlamp protectors as the lens is something like £80 if you crack one, and normally has to be gotten from the USA. The proectors are about £35 from Rufe.
