Volvo S40 low beam bulb

Could anyone help me on this?

I need to replace my Volvo S40 (1998) low beam bulb, how can I do it? :eek:

I read the manual, but unclear wheather the high beam and low beam share a same bulb. :heckle: You know where could I buy a low beam bulb?

Many thanks! :bowdown:

They almost certainly do share the same bulb- they have two elements and a reflector to vary between high and low beam. Bulbs have a number/letter code to denote their type, the manual should tell you what it is, or just go into Halfords and look it up in their little book;).

Maybe some help to ya...

www.powerbulbs.com don't list a '98 model, but the 97 is listed as being an H4 type for low beam, and an H1 for main beam. Hope that helps :)

They also do long life bulbs for daylight running too. They're a superb company, highly recommended.
