What is it? It's a heat shield "blanket" that wraps around an AGM battery in a 2022 XC40 T4 R-Design to shield it from engine heat. The one from my car got messed up, and since I'm replacing the battery now it's the right time to look for a new one. (Note: The one pictured here is from a stock engine bay photo.)

US dealers have this part number in their system but it's listed as unavailable. It also has some markings inside, but they don't yield any results when searched online. ...

It is called 'Battery Isolation / Insulation', p/n 32344044. Does anyone have any idea if Volvo sells it under a different part number or if I can get one elsewhere? I'm at a dead end.

Obviously subcontracting non-arborists, likely because they are cheap, isn’t working out for the plants. I question the decision making by the Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority (MRCA) that led to the massacre of several prominent natives along the LA River bike path in Frogtown. It seems insane but it’s not the first time I’ve seen unskilled gardeners attacking plants here. Not far a few years ago they chopped California Redbuds to the ground but left stands of non-native Black Poplars. What you see here is a massacred mature Toyon (my guess is it cannot recover), a terribly pruned Desert Willow, Mexican Fan Palms (likely okay, but native provenance suspect) and a Blue Elderberry (I think) that was just destroyed. From the trucks it’s clear they hired the guys who clean up bus shelters to do the native tree trimming at the LA River, which is basically mostly a demonstration garden for natives here. What were they thinking?
