I have owned my 2015 XC70 for five weeks now.

One Volvo accessory I would like to add is mud flaps (although it seems to me splash guards might be a better term for this item).

I have seen various installation instructions for the Volvo OE part. Some of them call for a pop rivet in addition to the screws that come with the kit. I do not want to drill additional holes in the car.

Is this pop rivet part of an older installation method? One installation guide I found on line did not mention a rivet nor did a you tube video I watched. Both of these were for model year 2015.

So what's the deal with the pop rivet?
