Unhappy Rear near side light cluster

Hi

I seem to recall there is a recommended parts supplier on here and for forum members a discount is available. I'm after a ns rear light cluster the bottom section and would be grateful if anyone can put me in touch with a decent supplier.

Ideally I want a 2nd hand unit to keep costs down. I've attached a photo of the damaged cluster (wifes fault & yes she is blonde) but I'm unsure as to when people say there car is 2005 year they then say my2005 or 6.

What does the MY refer to and how do I go about finding the my for my wifes car - aka "the stunt driver".

thanks

I can't help with a supplier but I believe MY stands for Manufacture Year.
So if you have a car with a 04 registration plate then the MY will be MY04

Pretty obvious when you put it like that. Thanks Ed

Search for FRF (Rufe) on here, he can supply you the part with a discount.
Best to have the vehicle VIN or registration handy to make sure you get the right one.
You have the round indicator/reverse lights so is a pre-facelift model (pre 2006)

Yep, took me some time to realise what people were talking about, then the penny dropped.

To make it more complicated.... not exactly

In Volvo terms a new model Year starts somewhere September of the previous year, so a car built in May of 2006 is a 2006 MY, but a car built October 2006 is a 2007 MY...
Hope I still make sense....

There are a few on Ebay for your MY, £130 used (as new) and £145 new
See what prices FRF can give you...
