As the owner of an 89 Porsche 944T, I can tell you those clips will break as well. They will probably last a bit longer than the Volvo parts, but I've had to replace a pair on the Porsche as well. VW makes a part that is nicer, and bolts right into the 944, so it should bolt right into a 245 as well. It's got a spring loaded bit, so I think it will fatigue the plastic less, plus there's an additional little cover that will clip on to hide the screws, if you care about that sort of thing.
Here are a couple of pics of the VW clip & cover, next to one good and one broken 944 clip:

3B0 857 561 BB41 . . . Black

For the clip-on dress cover:
