headlight upgrade

The Volvo 480 looks good as is, but if you have the desire to give it a more personal look you can find out what others did to their 480 and be inspired.

headlight upgrade

Post by rs510e » Wed Nov 16, 2005 9:51 pm

Its funny, my car isnt even on the road yet i have ot do stuff ot make it work better....anyway im looking to get some nicer looking headlights, like thoe xenon effect ones or something. those usually look really nice and i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on what to get. I took apart the headlight today to change the connectors to the bulb but forgot to check hte bulbs.
I heard of someones indicator stalks burning when upgrading to 80w or something so :? . I think i will stick to 55/60 if i can... Any suggestions?
