it is a large plate, hard to find at the breakers. I was lucky to find one. Most mechanics will discard it because unfortunately it didn't had a hole for the oil filter, so it has to be removed every time. Volvo sells the 7 bolts special for this splash guard skid plate. The two rear brackets will break often times
I prefer having it for these reasons: in winter it protects the belts from freezing water/ice. It protects the metal power steering lines which are prone to rusting on 2001-2004. It protects the underneath from any road debris.
