Whats a $125 ea every 15 yrs? (I just did both for $250 this past summer)
One thing is that the aftermarket lamps that I've seen don't have the thick foam gasket which is key to making the lamp housing seal properly. These are $30 at the dealer, so now your $50 is $80. And the light bulbs are not always included, another $10. The aftermarket reverse lens gets yellow fast, and re-gluing one on every year or two is a PITA.
The Volvo lights sound like a good deal now, don't they?
