LHD are still available, but RHD have not been available for many years. Aftermarket braces have dried up too. I sold an aftermarket brace on ebay a couple of months ago; within an hour I had two BIN offers of £250, but let the auction run its course. It sold for £271.

Price of some of the bits it’s madness

I’ve been offered £400 for some as new headlight protectors for my 850, still in original packaging!

No one want's mine @ £250 so £550 is a bit optimistic

Yes, exactly my thoughts. That one is not even a genuine Volvo one. I bought the last one of the batch of fifty that partsforvolvoonline had made. Although they were good copies they are different , I subsequently bought a genuine brace and when put alongside the pattern one the differences are obvious.
