Stay away from aftermarket at all cost.

Stock "BOGE" OEM S70 spring seat ~ $25 (rmeuropean dot com, autohausaz dot com).
Check Volvo OEM XC90 seat, it is about $35 or so.

Plus so many counterfeits and false OEM claims on eBay(in general), this part should probably come from a reputable retailer or the dealer.
