Default Fold Down Luggage Grille

Hi All,
just about to sell my V70 in px with a dealer for an XC60 and was wondering if the fold down grille that I bought would also fit the XC60. A long shot I know but don't want to shell out on a new one if I don't have to.

all the best James

Difficult to say without a direct side by side comparison. Do the respective grills have the same part number? However, personally I wouldn't bother. The cost of a new grill is a small fraction of the value of the whole transaction. I would let it go and also make a point of happening to mention that I was leaving the grill in the old car. It all helps maintain a positive relationship.

I owned a V70 XC before my current XC60. I have owned the fold down grille in each car as I carry a considerable amount of kit in the boot and I have found it very reassuring. In fact I also own the steel grille in our XC90 but it doesn't fold up to the roof as it does in the other cars. The one fitted to the XC60 is considerably smaller than the one on the V70 as there is a much shorter distance between the top of the back seat and the roof line.

Default thanks Gaskit

Thought that might be the case but was worth asking.
cheers
