In case anyone needs the info, I installed new tailgate support shocks ($40/pair, aftermarket from Volvoworld.com) in my 850 wagon last night. Took less than an hour with torx bit, a small and a large flathead screwdriver. Upper center and side plastic panels remove and re-install easily. Old shocks pry out with large flathead screwdriver. New ones have securing clip. Procedure is done with tailgate propped open. What a difference it makes!

Take care,
-Smitty '95 855T
