Wiring covering V70-XC70 2006

Hi, I'm noticing since there is so much heat under the hood (looking to do something about that too) that the ribbed wiring covers are drying up and crumbling. A couple different sizes...Any good source for replacements? Thanks.

It's called convoluted wire loom tubing. You can get it either split or non-split, in various diameters.

Be certain the loom you buy is high temperature stuff.
I bought a bunch at an electric supply shop and it crumbled away in very short order.
If anyone wants any LOW temperature loom...cheap...give me a shout.

“Be certain the loom you buy is high temperature stuff.”

Don’t really know, but based on our collective experience with these looms, it seems that Volvo used the low temp stuff during manufacture!
