Hello All,

I have a 86 245 DL with water in the Drivers Side Headlight. Still clear by the way. Only one of the mounting bolts remains unbroken. The car lost a round with a deer about 7 years ago. Actually the deer lost in hindsight. She ended up in a cops freezer. The car is still running down the road.

It still works but the issue is of course brighness. Somebody at Volvo screwed up when they went to this design.

I see the 400+ light kit on ipq to change it over to glass and that sounds a little expensive. All the ones at my favorite pick ur part are far worse than mine. Any suggestions on where to find a good price on a lens? BAP Geon told me it was a dealer part, but I find that hard to belive. Seen too many yellowed headlights on 240's. I live in the Houston area by the way. Open to any and all ideas that same me money.

Thanks in advance for your help.
