Default v70 headlight units

Hi all

I need to replace a broken near side headlight unit. Do I need to get a V70 specific one? Or will XC70/S60/S80 ones fit too?

Thanks
Rob

What is the year of the car? Halogen or xenon headlights?

Oh one final question - will glass lensed units also fit?

I've found some on ebay which say

`Taken from a 2003 V70, good condition. Please note that this is the earlier type with a glass lens and has standard bulbs fitted.

This type will fit S60 V70 and XC70 models up to around 2004 when they went to plastic lenses. `

I'd prefer glass since the plastic ones just go cloudy

thanks for your help
Rob
