Key fob light bulb and battery

Post by Hell Driver » 20 Sep 2010 01:46 pm

Has anyone ever managed to get replacement bulbs and batteries for the key fob lights? I just tried maplins who were unable to find anything that would work. The bulb is 1.5volt (unknown wattage).

(I know I've got bigger fish to fry but it can't be that much to ask to find something do simple :x )

Local volvo dealer can still supply them (in theory) for £35 :shock: (whole key by the way, not just the bulbs :lol: )
