My D5 MY08 has steel arms. I don't know when they changed but I know earlier ones (at least MYs 02/03) were aluminium. I've just polybushed my car using and refitting my old original arms and you don't need the cut away scaffold tube to support the arm on the steel ones, but access to a press or a very strong vice is a good idea.
General advice on here is go for Volvo or a very good OE supplier as many of of the cheaper ones available fail after as little as a year.
