I just took the outside strip off with hook tools. P.O.P. really.

The failure of your air suspension is imminent, Humph. It'll happen in the middle of France. *twitch*

While i was watching the video I was thinking seriously ? You have to strip off the interior trim panels ?
Volvo is four torx screws,
Ford I've no idea. Having recently upgraded the USB ports in the media hub it won't surprise me if the engine has to come out for the rear number plate bulbs. If Ford had provided an extra 2cms of cable, the USB could have popped out the surround, unplugged, new unit in pushed back home but that would have 10 cents/100 cars in extra cable, the solution ? Make the cable just long enough to plug in behind. If the USB port stops working for whatever reason or you want to upgrade to multiple plugs while keeping the original look the transmission tunnel sides, the transmission selector or gear stick surround, the lower side of the dashboard around the 'media hub' plus the wireless charger all have to come out to get to the back of the unit. 🤬

When mine went in France, Pierre said: "It'll be trois semaines till I can even regarder that, mon sewer. Sur ton bicyclette, mon vieux china plate". I drove it home on the wonk, Pete in Reading did it next day.
Similar story with my sister's Jaaaaaag this summer.

I’ve never really taken to Guinness. Unless, it was in a traditional Irish pub, in Ireland, where for some reason, it just feels right. A bit like Rose wine, which tastes fabulous in the south of France, but can lead to disappointment elsewhere. A Caipirinha in Rio is similarly restricted.

Given the gassy rubbish they now serve at the Etihad (Asahi), the Guiness is a decent alternative. They used to serve a variety of Seven Brothers ales but sponsorship nonsense has taken over good taste.
But yes a glass of rose is always better close to where it was produced and having been to the top of the Guiness experience in Dublin, there are many worse places to drink it than near the Liffey.
