    Unhappy Spoiler Brackets.

    Anyone know if you can buy tailgate spoiler mounting brackets for an 850 t5 without buying a spoiler??
    The dreaded rust has nearly eaten through one of mine.
    Thank in advance
    Richie.

    Probably, Volvo seem pretty good at selling bits, or, a trip up a scrapyard?

    Is it not right that these kits have been discontinued or was it just they were on back order?

    I would be very surprised at that price Duane, the brackets are quite sturdy items, i would think £30 for the kit knowing Volvo,

    I do have a spare set here if you want to make me an offer,

    I'm only saying that because I know Scott was struggling to source some for his T-5R after he had it painted... I could be wrong of course

    Or you could do what the previous owner of my 850 did and just screw them through the roof with two self tapping screws... once I'd bought it and found out how they were supposed to fitted I was not impressed....
