Question 2001 S60 Front Control Arm Issue

I have a 2001 S60 with 99,660 miles on it. While changing the pads & rotors, I noticed the rollers which are located in the front of each control arm, were very worn & need to be replaced. I have gone to many websites looking for this "roller" (which looks almost looks like a black bushing) & can't seem to find the correct item. Many people have told me that Volvo now has replaced the part with what they call a "Steering Stop". See the link below to see the steering stop which is from the IPD website. Does anyone know if this is correct? If so, what is the correct positioning of this part since it has 2 prongs sticking out? If this isn't the correct part, where can I get the "roller" besides going to a Volvo dealer... Below is also a link from the forum that has a diagram of a S60 control arm (just scroll down) & you can see the roller is #11 on the diagram. Any help is greatly appreciated

If im not mistaken it will only go on one way the way the control arm is designed.

Yes the roller gets replaced by the plastic stop.
