Not sure if he got them at the Factory Delivery Center or at a local accessories shop, but I assume that the folks at the FDC could point you in the right direction. Barry indicated that he paid about $12 each for them, but that was a couple of years ago. He carried them back with him for Sweden and when his car eventually showed up, he installed them in about five/ten mins. Anyway...I just throw it out as another option for you.
Tis true - The FDC installed for light plastic protectors for free and the set cost $12. I also picked up three sets of plastic headlight protectors from a local Volvo accessory store in Goteborg and brought them back to US via airplane luggage. Two sets were for other XC70 forum members and cost was around $75 per set. Now this was back in Mar 2003 so things at FDC may have changed since.
