FFS. Great start to my morning.

Anyone have a drivers/LH E-code lens?
Knew i should have stuck with the cheap plastic NA headlights.

Of course my security camera was offline when is happened. Rest of the car and truck are untouched though.
Not going to rule out an accidental rock kick up, but seems suspicious and looks like my landscape rocks...

Wow that sucks. I doubt anyone here has one, probably best to try on tbrix.

Not the cheapest but an aftermarket lens at Skandix is available as a single, they have OEM if you’re feeling flush.

Been awhile since I logged in... also my photos died because I got fed up paying Flickr for storage. I’ll have to figure out another storage site...

Anyways, some updates:
- got new e code lenses
- water pump went, sat for awhile until I finished my garage build. Then replace pump and timing belt. Good times!
- replaced the shitty fitting e code headlights with depo North America style. So much happier even if they’re not the more desired style.
- acquired and installed Group A grill.
- drivers window fell into door. Broken weld. Repaired.
- fixed door lock so now they all unlock and lock from drivers door.. Wire was broken at door.
- also found speaker wire broken. Fixed wiring and replace both rear speakers. Now all 4 speakers are new and sound great. Have a spare sub, might wire that one day.
- teaching girlfriend to drive manual so she can drive the car too

That’s about it, really enjoy tinkering with this car.


I now however finally have my mustang at the house and will be working on getting that back on the road. So Volvo progress will be delayed.

Next Volvo project will be rear hatch replacement and the polish the rest of the car.

Also still looking for wheels and other aftermarket goodies like suspension. Let me know if you have anything!
