I believe that they're re-boxing Korean aftermarket lenses that most of the body supply places are carrying. Order from a lot of places and you'll get the same piece, but it might not have the scan tech brand.

In the case of turn signal lenses, for fifty bucks they aren't horrible.

On the aftermarket some parts like scan tech will be labeled someone else's parts, somewhere else. In other words, you migth get the same part anyway.

I just dumped one in one of my 940s after the Russians backed up into it. I've used the lenses before with decent success on 2/7/9 cars. The sucky thing is that the aftermarket (in this case labeled scan tech) turn signals for Volvo, would only be $20 for a Camry. And $15 for a Crapola.

Should you buy a Volvo lamp or lens? Up to you.
