    my dome light stopped working few days ago and it was really handy. I'm like half blind without it. Any ideas how to fix it? I did not see any screws or such things so I have no clue.
    thanks

    The dome light above where you sit or the big one above the sleeper? If it's the one above the sleep you gotta pop the cap off ( with a flat head screw driver ) and then go to a Volvo dealer and get the new bulb which I believe when this happened to me last year was between $20 and $30 bucks... You gotta pop the ones above the seats off with a flat head as well...

    Really? what happened to the $4.00 bulb? WOW! Must be a special Bulb! It must be that Union Labor Elf putting "Volvo" on each one?

    The cap is the plastic piece that is going over the bulbs... Stick the screw driver it the corner and try and pop it off... Mine was easy to get off but a pain to get back on...Im laying in my Volvo looking at it as I type this...

    YA its a special bulb I tried to get it at Wal-mart and a few other places and no one had it so I had to go to Volvo to get it and like everything else on a Volvo you have to buy from them and it aint cheap...
     
    FAP Thanks this.
