Thanks, but I was looking for a solution without installing the roof rails. This is Volvo's solution to it. Discontinued, but I think I've found a pair.

Yes, you need to cut the trim pieces. The instructions included the cut locations.
Where to cut is easily determined even if a used set comes without instructions.

Please clarify: "...install something for the scres the secure to the roof?"
There are screws which go into the receivers. Hopefully the seller salvaged the screws if he removed the rails.

Super handy option to have.
