    Welcome to the forum,

    I agree with T5 stealth, try a breakers yard you could pick one up in working condition for as little as £20.
    Arguing is pointless....she may not be right but she's never wrong

    Tell her a remap is just having your satnav updated.....

    The partsgateway always worked well as it get quotes from a few breakers some of which will specialize in volvo and will include postage if required.
