I think you can get them from Nordic (if your a VOC member) otherwise try GSF or Eurocarparts

850 or x70?
IFAIK, the x70 ones are simply C70 (later models only - 2003 + I think) lamps.
Not sure if they're available for the 850.
I'd love a set for my V70 but they cost an arm and a leg from Volvo dealers.

WWW.europeantuning.com do them . It states LHD but when you get them all you do is adjust the reflector to suit our roads..any MOT staion or competent garage can do so.
they also do the original 850 mats with the yellow '850' but only in LHD so far!!! NIghtmare!!

Ask andrew about the S/V/C 70 ones
He will have the codes for the headlights and indiacators as i beleive he recently purchased a set from nordic i think the total was less then £400 for both O/S and N/S lights and indiacators

FANTASTIC!
Just over €500 for a set of headlamps and indicators. That's only about £350. Plus shipping of course.
Hmmmm, all that's left to decide now is whether I should get ones with a black background or chrome background.
What d'ya reckon would look better on a dark car?

This is going to sound silly but being euro lights and with them all driving on the right, ids the beam pattern the wrong way round?

No Paul they are completely different for fitting,
On mine they have adjusters on the rear up and down same as yours,
but i have as might some others a indash switch to electronically lower or higher the beam,
plus as mine are clear there is no probs with the beam throwout. don't know about the 850 lenses,

Give Eurosporttuning a email, see if they do UK spec versions.

Looking at several different parts manufacturers, it seems to suggest that s70 and 850 headlights are the same.
