I was wondering has anyone attempted to use those on the contour? I thought these would be a lil different then the audi sidemarkers, which seems to be the norm. I think they are directional too. 1999 CSVT lightly modded http://www.lindseyinc.net/vehicles/contour

Hopefully that means some consistency but just my luck none what so ever. Whats the whole size behind the emblem? .25" square or circle, i thought i read that somewhere 1999 CSVT lightly modded http://www.lindseyinc.net/vehicles/contour

I called a local volvo parts store and they said they have them for $43 a peice. Thats a lil pricey but maybe worth it to be different. And what about the size of the hole behind the emblem quarter inch circle or square....anyone....anyone....anyone.... 1999 CSVT lightly modded http://www.lindseyinc.net/vehicles/contour

If I had to venture a guess , without going out & removing a sidemarker to check , the hole is about 5/8" (round hole) . ~~~~~~~ Phil Black & Tan 2000 SVT Contour #2137 of 2150 35,000 miles & counting !
