Simple question for the group. On a 1993 960 wagon can you replace the bulb in a burned out headlight or does the complete headlight assembly have to be replaced like my old
740. Also, any suggestions on which brands of lights to look for/avoid? Second question, the heated seats are not working in my car. Strange thing is that neither of the switches light up when they are switched on. Anyone know where I should start in my troubleshooting? ThanksWildcat
Just the bulb gets replaced separately, but do so in pairs. The Sylvania ultra bright are rally nice (silver star or something like that- I don't remember the exact name). Just avoid any that say "ultra blue" or similar names. The switches have a separate light bulb in them for illumination I think... At least the older switches did AFAIK.. which often is not much...

Open the hood, look at the back of the headlamp, twist the lock-ring and the connector/bulb will pull out... I just use Volvo OEM lamps... they aren't any more expensive then a good quality halogen from any other brand... And they last a long time (Silverstars don't last long, but they have better light output, I had some in my Golf for about a year, went thru 3 sets of them... luckily Canadian Tire took back the burnt out bulbs and gave me my money back each time).
