Thank you all, and apologies if I was a little "terse".

It does appear that the colour that I need is incredibly rare, just my bloomin luck, and that America is the "best" source - at any price.

Investigations continue..........

(I just don't want to loose too many points at my first showing at the National BKV this year!)

Thanks, and apologies again,

My approach would be to get some good condition pockets, in any colour, then neatly bond a strengthener along the top inside edge to improve on Volvo's very poor design (e.g. a thin steel rod or a length of brake pipe), then have them sprayed to match your interior
