Default Interchangeable Headlamps S60 and XC70 2006

Hi,
I have a 2006 XC70 D5 and need a right side headlamp but am finding it difficult to find a breaker of the same spec. There's an S60 D5 2006 and a 2007 that I have come across. Can anybody confirm if I can use headlamps from them? I've checked VIDA and the part numbers are slightly different but I found an earlier thread where someone managed to put S60 lamps in a V70.

Coincidentally, I ordered crush washers for the engine sump and tranny sump and was told by FRF that they are the same despite seeming to have different part numbers on VIDA, so am wondering how you actually tell if the parts are the same.

I'm attaching screenshots from VIDA from the 2 different cars. You can see the car spec on the top right of the pic's.

Thanks.

I did finally swap the headlight for one from an S60. It fits and works perfectly fine. The only difference I can find is that plastic pieces that surround the enclosures are silver in my Xc70 and the S60 one has black pieces.

It is a bit annoying once you know but it would take a very keen eye to spot it otherwise.

I'll post a couple of pics hopefully
