Arain,

As the others have said, the clips/tabs can be repaired.

There is a product called PlastiFix that will actually let you mold new ones.

BTW what is the noise? These cars are well known for dashboard noises when going over rough roads and during temperature extremes. On my car it was the glove box rubbing against the frame. Some felt and CAREFULLY snugging up the fasteners took care of most of the noise.

It could also be out-of-position isolation pads between the windshield and the dash. The 4 main bolts could just be loose. Can you pulll the dash away from the firewall? If so, then probably one or more of the clips/tabs is broken.

Snaps, crackles and pops just seem to come with every boxy Volvo.

Good luck,
Bryan
