I faced the same situation with my 2001 V70. You need to buy it from a dealer, do not waste money on other places.
The only way you can save a bit (maybe) if you buy a remote from a mail-order Volvo parts dealer, and have it programmed by your local dealer.
A new remote comes with a special code/barcode tag, that your dealer will program into your car's computer. Without this label you can't do anything with the remote. All remotes you see on ebay or used car dealers have no code, so they can only be used for some parts (case, etc)
