Default S80 Suspension woes

Hi all, newbie here, it would not surprise me if this topic has already been covered but i cant find a thread relating to my exact problem.

So I have a 2010 S80 1.6 drive R design, Its just failed MOT on one of the rear shocks and it is fitted with the nivomat self leveling shocks. So ive been checking everywhere, they are crazy priced new and impossible to find used. I know that most models have a standard kit you can buy to replace the nivomats but I can't find one specifically for the S80 phase II. I am able to source shocks and harder springs separately but from what I understand you also need to replace the top mounts as the ones fitted for nivomat are diffent. So what I'm hoping for is that someone on here can steer me in the right direction.... Are there any used nivomats out there? do I definitely need to change top mounts? if so are there any top mounts out there that will fit my car? Please help this Volvo is starting to hurt my head.

Thanks in advance, Pete.
