Firstly, the positive: This kit addresses my BIGGEST cosmetic pet peeve with our 2007 V70 wagon. MASSIVE improvement. NIce of them to include the rain collection cheeks as well. The beef is with the white clips -- the black and yellow ones are fine. I spent about 2 hours fiddling with getting the white clips to go in -- do they snap in? Are they to go into the trim piece first? I tried every permutation working from the rather vague instructions at https://www.skandix.de/en/documents/installation-guide/moulding-apillar-windscreen-drip-rail/3000453/ Driver's side (done first): 3+ hours. Passenger side, bypassing any attempt at using the white clips: 25 minutes. I salvaged the white (now off-white with decades of weathering) clips from Volvo. They are subtly different in the thickness of the plastic used for the mounting flange. The amount of force necessary to "snap" them was prohibitive, and I was unwilling to risk damaging the trim. There is a slight gap on the driver's side looking toward the car near the top of the A-Pillar. I guess I could try to reposition the topmost yellow clip to move it away from the windshield... Or re-use the old ones... but I'm done fiddling with it for now and despite that gripe this is a MAJOR IMPROVEMENT that took some serious wrinkle lines off our beloved wagon.

On the passenger side the lower part of the trim near the hood did not want to clip down. We changed out all of the clips rotating through to see if it was a bad clip but nope. It also did not come with instructions but luckily it wasn’t too difficult to figure out along with the guy who left the longer review explaining his issues and the link he posted. Because the passenger side wouldn’t fully clip down we had to tape it down onto some caulk so it wouldn’t be up and risk flying in the air when driving. The trim also wouldn’t fit at first and had to cut with a razor(possibly bc the aftermarket windshield is oversized), but i also found a video online where a man had the same problem and he sanded down a flap of the trim so it would be flat against the windshield. It also has a larger gap up top and we made sure it was the correct position. Not sure if it’s a missing trim near the roof racks or if the product is just over cut and undersized up to. Overall the product works and is fine now. It definitely can be tweaked to fit better as well as having instructions. They also do not seem to ship stickers with the product anymore even though they said they would but not stressed about that.

Awesome product. Fit perfect.

The molding looks and feels like good quality materials and manufacturing were used. However, as there are no instructions included with it I had to figure some things out on my own as well as spend time looking up the Volvo how-to's elsewhere. A single sheet how-to instruction set could have made the install easier and with better results. The first strip I installed isn't quite aligned correctly and thus doesn't sit fully flat against the vehicle's A column. But other than the "user error" part of the equation, this is a very good repair product. NOTE: If the vehicle's paint color is also on stock windshield molding trim, you cannot simply replace the rubber and reuse the original metal trim part. The rubber is thoroughly bonded with the metal trim during manufacturing on both the stock and replacement parts. You'll have to be okay with black trim molding. I think it looks very good on my 2007 XC70. Lessons learned: You will want to remove the front plastic cover on the roof rail and loosen (or remove) the two bolts. Lifting the rail up a little bit will make installing the new molding trim a lot easier. Do not pound too hard on the new trim piece while trying to snap it onto the retaining clip. If it isn't snapping into place, then it's not aligned correctly or the plastic retaining clip may have shifted or broken. After the clips are in place on the vehicle, starting from the top one, make sure each clip is fully snapped on correctly BEFORE allowing any of the lower snaps to grab hold.
