Ah yes but they are not any old bits of plastic they are volvo bits of plastic.
You are correct it's a rip off but most things volvo are over priced as a matter of course.
I would start scouring breakers but remember on top of the trim to budget for new clips
Now if you want rip off wait till you see what volvo charge for trim clips. For trim clips find a good independant motor factor..
The real insult is that when you get the bit off it will probably have Fo Mo Co stamped on the back. The P3 volvo V and XC70 is a Mondeo in drag, the only volvo bits is the engine and ford messed with that to make it cheaper. Even the manual gearbox oil is a Ford spec.
