Gently Pry Out Housing |
This
automotive maintenance tutorial was specifically written to assist
owners of the first generation (2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015,
2016 and 2017) Volvo XC60 SUV in changing a burnt out rear passenger
courtesy reading dome light bulb in the overhead housing attached to
the headliner. Owners of other Volvo vehicles such as the XC90, XC70, S90, S80, S60, S40, C30, C70, V90, V70, V60 and V40 may also find these DIY instructions to be helpful. The compatible replacement miniature wedge base light bulb part number is 2825 (also known as W5W). You can also use a brighter LED unit. The only tool needed to access and replace the light bulbs is a plastic automotive panel removal tool or a small flathead screwdriver. |

Re-Insert Pry Bar Tool |
Light Housing Removed |
To prevent from
scratching the plastic light housing or tearing the fabric headliner, either
cover the tip of your screwdriver with a thin micro fiber cloth or use a
plastic pry bar tool. Insert the blade of the panel removal or your flathead screwdriver in between the edge of the light housing and the headliner. Gently pry out the light housing to release the retaining clips. You may need to re-insert the tool in several spots to fully remove the housing. Try to avoid using excessive force. The housing should pop out relatively easily. |
