New/Used 1800ES "Albert" Wing Mirrors

Hi,
The chrome wing mirrors on my 1800ES are starting to degrade badly. The mirror glass coating is coming off. The problem is that the past owner had some bodywork done and the mirror stalks are permanently fixed to the wings and cannot be removed without major problems. I hunted around and found some new mirror "tops", and the pictures from the supplier looked ok. Stupidly I didn't ask for measurements or stamping on the back of the mirror. They were genuine Volvo, so I assumed it must be correct. When they turned up they were a little bigger and the fitting at the back slightly different. It was then I realised that my mirrors had the name "Albert" stamped on the back (as well as the volvo logo).

Does anyone know where I might be able to get these "Albert" manufacturered mirror tops? or maybe there is a re-pro one that will fit my existing "Albert" stalks?

Thanks,
James.
