Volvo C70 (2009) Headlight Replacement Drivers side

Looking for Volvo c70 (2009) driver side headlight to replace cracked one on mine.

Struggling to find anything, Volvo new is £550, used is £299. Yikes.
Cheers
Alan

See if you can find one that's damaged on the back but with a good glass, there's a few users here who can advise you how best to transplant the glass onto your existing unit.

If the crack's not too bad, and all that's happened is that the seal at the rear has lost its seal, that's eminently repairable. Videos on YouTube.

Unfortunately the lens has a hole in it. My son took it out yesterday. Oh well.
It can't be filled at all. I've got sellotape over it until I can get a new lens

Hopefully I can find one but nothing so far. I'm confident I can get a new lens onto this broken one.
Thanks very much for the help

Is it actually at all possible to get a replacement lens or repair these ? I thought they were all plastic, including the clear front lens ?

That's now what I'm trying to find.
There are a few online, buy not for my model

Yeah I'll go back on to them now. I tried earlier on my phone, but the popups and add and offers to download the APP made navigating the website really infuriating, especially when I'm on gumtree, ebay, every breaker in town 😂

Thanks I will try now 👍
