They're glass lensed... I can't remember exactly what I paid for them. I just got them, but it was a couple months before they got here since we played it loose as it was a transaction between friends. Perhaps $250 + $60 for shipping?

I do like the fit of the Genuine Volvo Euro-headlamps better than the aftermarket... and replacement lenses and reflectors are easy to find (though not cheap) for Genuine stuff as well. They pretty much hold their value indefinitely, as well.

Aftermarket E-codes are available here in the States on fleaBay and FCP Groton, so you'll have them within a week. IIRC, these are $250, brand new. The quality and optics aren't quite Genuine Volvo.... but if the choice is between aftermarket US headlamps and aftermarket E-code heeadlamps, it's a no brainer. Get the Euro stuff.
