Default Rear Taillight - change just the lense?

We backed into something today and busted a piece out of the passenger side rear tail-light in our 2021 XC-60. Replacement units are around $340 on eBay, $550 at a Volvo dealership. Installation looks to be quite complicated! Then I see that several Chinese companies (red flag?) have just the lense for sale. Question: can I replace just he lense? If so, it would be cheaper (under $200) and probably easier. Thanks!

Sure - if you can figure out how to get the super glued lenses off of the reflector, without damaging the reflector.

Why not try to get the old lens off (the reflector) - before committing to a ebay/chinese part that you may not be able to use?

They're sealed units, so I wouldn't try it. I replaced mine following instructions on YouTube. Took some time, but saved $ vs dealer.
