Hi;

On the pillar of my 960 is a note to have the safety equipment
serviced/replaced.

I guess this is the airbag and belt restraints.

Any one know if this is a DIY job or for the specialists.

Are there any details on what to do?

Any one have a Volvo price for this service?

Regards
Ian

When your 960 is fifteen years old, take it to the dealer who will check it
out and replace any life-ex components at a, no doubt, astronomical price.
For example the front seat belts alone cost £150 ($250) each. The original
ten year period was upped to fifteen a year or two ago.

All the best, Peter.

What is "life-ex"?

End of expected life of component. Life expired in full.

All the best, Peter.
