..update on this.
The seller on eBay wouldn’t ship no matter how much I implored him to do so, so I sourced a used skirt locally for €30 and am having it re-painted for €150, which while not an insignificant sum all told, is reasonable considering some businesses quoted me €365 while others refused point blank to do it! Even the main Volvo dealership wouldn’t touch it and only offered to assist if I ordered a new part from them and then had it painted also by them.
Anyway fingers crossed the repaint is a good match and the assembly/refit comes back together for me.
Next job A/C which is inop (doesn’t retain refrigerant charge when turned on). On that, can anyone tell me what compressor units are compatible on the V50 MY2010 B4164T 1.6 Drive (non s/s) for me to source a used one - Volvo obvs., Mazda, Ford, Peugeot - anything else?
