Red face windshield washer fluid container broken, where to buy?

My windshield washer fluid container of 03 S40 was damaged. I tried autozone.com, usautoparts.com, ebay and etc., but was not able to find. Where can I buy it at a reasonable price?
Thanks in advance.

Or get it new from Volvo. There are no aftermarket replacements.

try swedishautoparts.com
if it isn't listed e-mail them in the inquiry section, they can order it for you...
to give you an example...volvo quoted me a door handle for my 04 LSE at 120 shipped, they sold me a new one for 35 shipped...

Thanks guys.
They do have the part @ about $50. I guess it'd cost me over $150 if ordered from volvo.

If it's just cracked, you can repair it with JB weld. It's redneck, but it works.

I just bought one on eBay for $30 with shipping. I'll pull my old one out and see if it can be glued.

Turns out someone put the "low washer fluid switch" in upside down into the side of the reservoir. This caused fluid to leak out and the light on the dash always stayed on (you would think it would always be off). So I spent most of Saturday and some of Sunday on my back replacing the container. No leaks in the old one so I have one for sale if anyone needs one. It's $30 plus shipping. Let me know.
