Re: WANTED: A set of Engine Hoses
I would also like to replace all my hose system along with a new pump and radiator.
How much are we talking about for the hose set, give or take?

Re: 480 Strange Electrics
In the past I have tried many different kind of LED bulbs for DRLs. As Robert says, most of the Ebay Chinese bulbs are a pile of shit. Individual leds fall from their solderings when they heat. They heat a lot. Having that said no Led bulb has ever caused any gremlin in my 1991 Turbo. It's just a ma...

Re: headlight motor needed
I don't have a spare motor but I am sure "The Dutch Crew" will provide you a perfect tested one.
A couple of years ago some other American owner showed up in the forum, so now it's two of you at least.
Please tell us more about this car and post some pictures.

Re: Volvo 480 tail lights
The rearlights I had for sale on Ebay didn't sell finally. They had a 200 euro starting price and a 375 "buy it now" option. I have them now for sale on the Gumtree-like Spanish site. https://www.milanuncios.com/otros-recambios/luces-faros-traseras-volvo-480-235897318.htm As I explained in the Ebay ...

Re: Pair of rearlights for sale on Ebay
Yes.
I thought I had enabled Europe shipping, but it wasn't. Thanks for that. Of course I will ship to the UK. Pictures don't make justice about how shiny theese two are.

Re: Cruise Control - make the 'cruise' light work
I think I've found a way around to make the CC light work only when the pump is engaged without having to mess with the intruments board to avoid burning he board again. Its a T5 LED bulb into a conventional T5 Socket wired directly from pin 1 of the CC and then grounded to the under-the-dashboards ...

Re: Cruise Control - make the 'cruise' light work
Bringing back to life this old thread as I'm going to mount a CC into my 1991 Turbo in a couple of weeks. When you /they say managed to make the Cruise light work only when the pump is acting, meaning the CC is engaged, is you wired from pos. 1 of the CC control unit to pos. 9 in the green socket at...

Re: Smoke in the speedo
Gutma. Maybe you don't want to give up, this soon with your infocenter, but I have gone exactly through the same history with mine (including smoke coming from the infocenter board) and the wisest thing to do, which will save you money and time, is to send the speedo to Robert and let him take a loo...

Re: Time for my 1st 480!!
Would also kill for a Starion. I guess we are all into the retrofuture quirky stuff. There's one for sale close to my place. But if finding spares for the 480s in becoming increasingly harder I cannot imagine myself digging the japanese classifieds for parts and paying for shipping from Japan. http:...
