Off the top of my head, I think they're 8mm. If I can find one, I'll measure it.

Ok, I did a little checking. The part # is 979780 and it is what volvo calls a 6MM flange screw. (I'm getting deja vu now: I needed one of these when I went to install my pa-300 and I could not find anything at my local hardware store...) I don't remember if it is standard thread or not.
Here is more than you want to know about them

And, I am going to guess that you might be able to get one from a certified Volvo truck & parts dealer, too; yup that's t-r-u-c-k-s. Some fasteners (and I think this is one) are shared with Volvo trucks.

Yes indeed - he tried to brush me off again and I said that if he couldn't order one in maybe he knew of a place where I could get it made, pointing to the CAD diagram

My local Volvo parts dept looked it up for me and said it is 6 mm bolt. He gave me two and I can send them on to you.

Re: OEM Amplifier install (zoomin)
Well that stinks--I hope I didn't give you the wrong part #, I'll check again: yup, it says 979780 (M6). Now this is from VADIS 2004B, which obviously does not include MY '06, however, I think that part is the same.
The bolt (it looks more like a bolt than a screw) is listed in VIDA and your dealer parts guy should be able to look it up. I called a local dealer and they confirmed the part # ('06 is same part# as '04)--I even ordered a couple for myself, truth be told, I never bolted my pa-300 in when I installed it!
So what could be going on here?
-they gave you the wrong part? VADIS/VIDA lists the wrong part?
-we are not talking about the same thing (the two bolts that go into the bracket that is part of the amp and holds it down)?
-the threads on the nut are stripped?
-you are looking at your Saab or you went to the Saab dealer for the part?

Was there any packaging with the bolt? Got a part #? Was it too small by any chance?
