Hello everyone, first post, so please be easy on me. Did a search but couldn't find much.

The passenger headlight was hit in a parking lot. Of course, no note. So as I search for a replacement, these questions have come up...

1) How do I figure out if my wagon is an R model? The engine is a B5254T2 R5 2.5L. Might the "R5" mean it's an R model?
2) Can the lens just be replaced, reusing the electronics?
3) Does anyone want to hazard a quess on what this repair will cost?

You don't have an R model. It's a separate model from the XC.

That car came with a smaller engine running at far higher pressure. Much bigger brakes. Different interior and suspension.

Go take a look at IPD's website, they sell replacement glass (in some cases) as well as completely new assemblies.

Good folks. Lots of Volvo parts. Some unique to IPD.

Edit: You should also give Erie Volvo a call. Calling is best with a recycler.

Lifetime warranty on used OE parts. I've used them many times and been very happy.

I replied to Astro14, said it would be posted after moderators saw. But still isn't here?

More importantly, were you able to source a replacement headlight?
