Looking for overseas exporter, to buy new Euroheadlights (Cibie)? 200 1993

Hi. It's holiday time, and I think I'm just going to buy new Euroheadlights from an exporter. Can anyone suggest a source? ...someone reliable who exports such parts?

[sidebar: someone already suggested a small company, "Wagner and Gunter". I wrote to them, asking explicitly about how much it would cost for a full set of both headlights and parking lights, and also for the shipping charges -- all I got was a terse "157 Euro", and that's all they said -- so I'm left to guess: it's too cheap for everything, and more likely just for one side, but I don't know if it's for only each headlight, or for both a headlight and parking light on each side; and I don't believe that this includes shipping (I doubt it). So I guess, from their brevity, that they either had trouble writing english, or else really didn't want my business. I hope someone can suggest a company that's more helpful.]

I'm only interested in an outfit who can sell genuine Volvo OEM (Cibie) lights. (That's also why I'm avoiding eBay -- too much trouble telling the crap from the good stuff to take a chance).
I made the mistake of importing a set of Euroheadlights about two years ago for one of my '93's, and they were "DJAuto"-brand, essentially what we call "Scantech" crap, even thought the guy led me to believe that they were Volvo brand because he kept mentioning that he was getting them from his Volvo dealer. I got suckered -- I'm still finding problems with them.

So now, for my second '93, I want the "good" parts. If anyone can recommend a trustworthy outfit, I'd appreciate it.

In advance, Thanks very much.
