Funny you should ask that - I was talking about bulb changing, bumper removal, etc. with a Volvo technician last week, and mentioned removing the bumper (mine's an '05 facelift V70). He said that the bolts are hidden behind the 'chrome' trim, which has to be prised off, and doing so more often than not cracks it so it's not recommended.

Fear not, Capitaine Homme de Caverne - I think I'm going to find it useful in the coming few days - my driverside headlamp lens is going to have to come off (condensation issue) for a sealcheck.

Thanks for the info. Does this same procedure suit 04 S60. Previous owner gave the front bumper a knock and now the bumper return pops out on the drivers side. I can push it back in flush but after a few miles out again. I want to take a look to see if I can fix.
Thanks |

Just in case anyone comes across this thred searching for fog light replacement (as I did...) front fog light bulb replacement doesn't require bumper removal (XC70 2002). There is a smallish panel underneath the bumper which can be removed to give access to the back of the fog light.

Well Done
See, as your mum always told you, be patient.
Thanks for the post, I have to get in there to replace my bonnet catches and for the life of me couldnt figure what was holding the mechanism in place, I took all the bolts and the clips from the front crossmember and that had no effect. So next stage is to remove the complete front cover, thanks for the info, I didnt know where the fasteners were, can you clarify what you said about the fasteners under the wheel arch please. there you are now do you feel wanted and loved.

Removing the front bumber cover
Hi there,
My head light cracked and I searched for steps on removing the lens. I came across this video on how to remove the bumper cover. I hope it helps. Haven't tried to remove yet - but will soon. I hope it works. Cheers! http://www.ehow.com/video_5359903_re...t-volvo-s.html
