Does anyone know how to remove the dash so I can replace a broken lightbulb?
It is a 1999 V70 XC.
Thanks,
Pete

1:) Close the vents on the driver side & the center vents then remove
the grilles
2:) once the drivers door is opened on the side you will see a vent
remove the round cover from the bottom be careful not to lose this
3:) Remove 6 Torx screws from the dashboard & the instrument panel
4:) Remove the side vent from the dash pad
5:) Gently pull the dash away & up to gain access to the instrument
cluster you will see 2 latches unlatch both remove the connectors on top
2 & if there is a trip computer remove the connector for the trip computer
6:) Remove the cluster
7:) Replace the 4 bulbs in the center replace with 5Watt brighter @
night & replace the 2 turn signal bulbs these are a bulb & socket
complete the trip computer uses the same bulb as the turn signals

The official count is 343, but there was also a volunteer who lost his life
aiding in the initial rescue efforts. And I will never forget them as
long as I live,
nor should any American.

Replace tt with t (twice!) and remove parentheses to email me directly.
(But I check the newsgroup more often than this email address.)
