I fixed 2 of these already.
My local Volvo dealer sells the part for about $3.

Word to the wise -
The button presses against a flat-blade spring with folds and bends in it.
You can see that the L-shaped "button" takes a lot of stress pushing on the spring. No wonder they break, especially if pushed while driving and you hit a bump.

On mine, I unbent the spring a bit to provide less stress on the plastic when it gets pressed. I used needle-nose pliers. Test after reassembling the cluster, before putting it back in the dash. Tension should be gently, not hard. Maybe the new "button" will last longer that way. So far, my 2 repairs have held and not broken again.
