I'm not too familiar with Volvos, but my fiancee's S70 is missing the bottom left grill, on the front bumper. Does anyone know where I can get the best price for this item from an online dealer?<P>A part number would really help.<P>Thanks in advance.<P>

I bought one (in 1998) at a Dealer for $10. They are probably $15 to $20 by now. They can look up the part number in seconds on the computer terminal at the parts counter.<P>

Thanks for the info.<P>Now I've seen some S70s with foglights instead of the small grills. How hard would it be to install foglights - any wiring or switch issues?<P>Or would it be easier to replace the missing grill on the front bumper?

Someone give this man a reply! <P>Would it be hard to do a factory foglight conversion?

ha ha, I bought my 98 S70 with a missing fog light grill too, how odd. It's relatively easy to install fog lights, cause inside on the left hand side of the dash is a switch to operate the fog lights, so it's a simple attach and plug in...granted you know what you're doing. <P>

Would you have to buy the switch from your dealer?

If you want the illuminated matching switch, a dealer or wrecking yard are probably the only places you will find it. An advantage is that it simply plugs in; the connector is behind the blank cover. If you are planning to take advantage of the factory pre-wiring, you also need a relay. <P>The Volvo OEM foglight kit includes both lamp assemblies, the switch, the relay, and a fuse.<BR>

By the way, <A HREF="http://www.myvolvoparts.com/" TARGET=_blank>http://www.myvolvoparts.com/</A> sells the small replacement grilles for $9.90 each by mail order. They also sell the OEM fog light assemblies.
