Ok, if i remember correctly give it a sharp verticle tug and it comes out - its on those expander clips (like raw plugs) - cant really think how to discribe it but once you see it youll know what i mean.

Watch it though if your using anything to lever it with, ive split one before now with a large flat bladed screwdriver :( (trip to a scrapyard fixed it though!)

HTH,

Matt.

Cheers Matt.

I'll have a look and see how i go. I can honestly say i liked it better when they used screws to hold thing together rather than those plastic clips.

If you snap one can you replace it or do you need to replace the entire cover.

Are you able to pick them up at your typical motor spares shop or is it a volvo only bit?

Think theyll be 440 only bits - scrap yard visit (bet volvo charge an arm and a leg!). I know what you mean wish it was screws too!

Glad i could help. Are you going down to Crooked Billet this weekend?

The chance would be a nice thing.
I won't even have time to wash the car this weekend as the wife has me putting down a new wooden floor in the living room.

I've never heard of Crooket Billet, is it a car show or something?
