I found this page today that lists all the accessories for the new XC90 AND it includes installation instructions with diagrams etc., so I figured I'd share the link.

The only thing missing are prices but at least you can see pics of items and maybe determine if you would rather pick items up and try doing the install yourself possibly saving some money.

If you mean the reference of "Excl. JP" I took it to mean "Excluding Japan". Not sure though...

Interesting that there is no reference here to a rear-seat entertainment option that has been described as seat head rest tablet holder. I guess we'll have to see if they add anything at a later date.
Something will come but they just don't have it yet so they are listing nothing. The ones they did have didn't pass crash tests so it's back to the drawing board I guess. In due time...

I've posted this before but I was considering getting the mud flaps, front and rear, for my new XC90. I found them online for $130 shipped in the U.S. with no tax except in Rhode Island on Steingold Volvo's parts webpage. The front mudflaps can be found here, (those are for people without a body kit) and the rear mudflaps can be found here. I received the mudflaps aprox. a week after ordering and they printed out all the installation instructions and included them in the box as well. I had already viewed the installation instructions online and knew they would be a breeze to install but having them print and send them in the box is a good thing for those who do not research installation beforehand.

The install took me aprox. 35 minutes and that was only because I had some Opticoat 2.0 left over and took the extra time to alcohol prep and then opticoat each one before installing. Installation was as easy as removing 3 10mm screws from each wheel well and then installing the flap using 3 new 10mm screws for each flap in each wheel well.

I don't think on my Onyx Black First Edition they look 'bad'. I was getting minor mud and road grime splatter on the doors which is what made me consider them. I can say after 1 1/2 weeks of having them including a road trip last weekend, they do help minimize 'splatter' on the doors even up to the side view mirrors.

Here's pics of them installed for anyone who may be on the fence and was hoping to see pics of them installed.

I am confused, I checked XC 90 specifications, and TPMS is already included.
As I said in post #4, and as Gc52 mentioned, it is most likely Excluding Japan.

Thanks for posting these. I think the mud flaps look really good! If installs that easy I may pick up a set and try them out.
Sure thing, I always enjoy seeing real world pics of things so glad I could help a bit. On lighter exterior colors they may stand out more, but on dark colors and especially Onyx Black, they blend in well IMO.

You're welcome, glad I could 'help'. :)
 
yeah, your photos have made it easy for me on whether it's a must have or not

THANK YOU for posting this link. The parts themselves did not come with instructions and this link is the only place I've found installation instructions for anything. THANK YOU again :)

Also I saw (on another thread) where someone was complaining about fitment of the rear mud guard. It was obvious in the photo that the person had not installed the rivet supplied with the guard. The instructions showed exactly where to drill and installation was easy.
