Default Broken side rear window glass

Staying at a hotel in Vegas, somebody smashed the rear driver's side window (the small one on the back side) . Luckily somebody scared him off before he stole anything, but now I've got to get the window fixed before I drive back to LA. Anybody have any idea how much this might cost? Don't think my insurance will cover it, or at least the deductible won't.
Wondering if I should try to find this piece of glass from a junk yard, or if it's even possible to do it myself?
Any thoughts on how I can handle this to save some $ would be greatly appreciated!

Default update

Called a local auto glass place who quoted around $500 to fix the window.
Does anybody know if there is aftermarket glass you can get rather than the more expensive Volvo part? At this point I'm probably going to tape it up and drive it back to LA in hopes of getting it done cheaper. Would still love some thoughts on this if anybody has had a similar experience?

Maybe you can find a used one somewhere.
