Default Engine / spark plug cover bolts

Mine only had 2 when I got it and they’re both completely useless, I only just managed to get them undone. Anyone got any?

I have some if you don't mind them being a smidge 'aged'. Not quite a full set, think I'm missing one or two (heads rounded).

They are still available new from Volvo if you'd prefer that route too, will try and dig out part numbers.

Thanks Mr Cookeh, ideally I would like a full set and I’m really not fussed about their aesthetics so long as the heads haven’t been chewed to pieces.

Didn’t think about Volvo direct. I wonder how much they are from Volvo though, probably a fiver each! I might see how much they are and take it from there, seems such a silly thing to spend money on but I’d like the cover back on and properly held down.

Oh in that case I shall just order some new ones I think and admire their sparkliness! I’ll give a buzz in the morning. Thanks Mr 4x4.
