yeah, it's a size they never put in the packs (another Volvo conspiracy!)... I think it's 7mm but I'd wait to have that confirmed cos I'm not sure.

Yep, 7mm is the bunny, I just bought an ordinary 7mm allen key and cut it with an angle grinder giving you a short one and a long one. Insert the apropriate one in to a 7mm socket and away you go.
