S70 headlamp replacement S70

After coming out of class last week I found my passenger side headlamp to have been smashed. It's still broken. I'd like to know the cheapest way to have this fixed. I could just get the glass right? But I've heard those aren't real Volvo glass. Should I try a junkyard? I got a quote of 290 plus labor from the volvo dealer for a whol enew assembly or 138 plus labor for just the glass.

thanks!

My e-code lenses were less than $40 each from FCP Groton. Asian to be sure, but these are just hunks of glass, not timing belts.

I also have a broken headlight lens...did you replace your broken lens yourself? It looks like there are a series of metal clips holding the lens in place...do these just pop off or is there a special tool? Also, it looks like some of the clips are on the bottom - in an awkward place...is this hard to replace for the novice? thanks.
