Default Volvo 940 headlight lenses

I'm looking for just headlight lenses for my Volvo 940 1993 that does not have the combined fog light. Mine are yellowed and I have cleaned them but they never got crystal clear so I have decided to replace them. Any idea where to look for new replacement ones? I don't care what brand they are as long as they are just the low and high beam only. Thanks guys

UK fog ones not usually hard to get, but I havn't tried for a while. There is a manufacturer in the EU that does aftermarket lefthand drive lenses, Czech or Hungarian from memory, but I don't know if these would be the same spec as yours.

I would have thought there would be plenty of US suppliers.

Thank you. I do not care if they are designed for US use but if they fit it is good enough for me. I do not need the DOT approved but just need the plain lenses without a fog light. Thanks

There are a few used ones on eBay in the US, but some look quite yellowed too.

I thought replacing the whole unit with European spec (glass) lamps was considered a desirable upgrade in the US. You'd need them for a LHD car, so would be looking at continental Europe. Try various translations on eBay worldwide. Here's the German one. Most are shockingly over-priced, but there are a few potential bargains.
