i know where you mean, but can remember what they look like lol. but anyway, i would suggest getting a genuine new volvo part from the stealers for that job. also, at the rad/oil cooler side, renew all the rubber seals and the c clips which hold the pipe onto to rad cooler. i say this, cos it only a few quid to spend and if you cherish your car, you wouldnt want them coming off or leaking, which would ruin the engine. if you look on the back of the volvo club magazine, it tells you which stealer dealer gives 10% off the price. u will need your membership numeber at hand. good luck
