Womala Left Headlight Mounting Bracket OE 30744956 for Volvo S40 V50 Parts

• Material: Typically made of galvanized steel or reinforced thermoplastic (glass fiber-reinforced polypropylene). Steel variants offer exceptional rigidity for heavy headlight assemblies, while thermoplastic options reduce weight without compromising strength. Both materials include corrosion-resistant treatments (galvanization for steel, UV-stabilization for plastic) to withstand engine bay heat (up to 120°C), road salt, and moisture—preventing rust or warping over time.
• Precision Design: Molded or stamped to match the exact dimensions of the target models’ headlight assembly and chassis. Its mounting holes, bolt patterns, and alignment tabs are calibrated to OE standards, ensuring the headlight sits flush with the front bumper and grille (no gaps or misalignment that disrupt front-end aesthetics). Unlike generic aftermarket brackets, it eliminates "play" (looseness) between the headlight and chassis—avoiding beam misalignment (which impairs visibility or blinds oncoming drivers) or rattling (which damages internal headlight parts).

1. Confirm the vehicle’s headlight assembly type via VIN—some variants (e.g., halogen vs. xenon headlights) may have slight differences in mounting points, and this bracket is calibrated for specific assembly weights/sizes.
2. Reference the vehicle’s official service manual to verify torque specifications for mounting bolts—over-tightening can warp the bracket or crack the headlight housing, while under-tightening causes looseness.
3. Note this is the left-side bracket; do not interchange with right-side headlight mounting brackets—side-specific alignment tabs and bolt positions will cause the headlight to sit incorrectly, leading to beam misalignment.*

A: Signs of a failing bumper bracket include visible damage or deformation, misaligned bumper panels, unusual noises from the front end, or if the bumper appears loose or sagging on one side.

A: For optimal results, we recommend professional installation. Key considerations include ensuring proper alignment of all mounting points, checking for additional damaged components, and verifying all fasteners are properly torqued to specification.
