Couple a' S80 questions

I had a clunking sound that I thought was coming from the rear. I even checked the exhaust hangers and could not find a thing. It actually was some front-end parts that needed replacing (I believe a tie-rod was one of them). Have your front suspension checked by a dealer (two regular shops couldn't figure it out). '99 XC

To rpl the bulbs in the ccm you have to remove the shifter cover then remove the 2 screws holding the ccm in place then very gently raise the bottom edge up 7 pull it is held in place by 3-4 spring clips if you pull to hard you will break the slots in the ccm once removed you can easily remove the connectors on the rear do this with the key OFF unless you want to set a srs code in the car your local Volvo dealer should have the bulbs in stock

The noise in the rear is most likely one or both of the rear sway bar links common problem for this you need to have the weight of the car off the ground not that hard to rpl yourself approximate cost of rear links $45.00 each we get 1 Hour of labor to change do both links @ the same time because if one is bad & one is good now it will not be long before that one fails to Glenn

Thanks for all the info guys, I appreciate it immensley.
