Does anyone sell just the OEM tail light lens?
:sigh: On day 2 of ownership, I've managed to break a tail light lens on the wagon ('02 C320 4M). Through the wonders of search, I've found numerous places that sell the full assembly for ~$180. The only lenses I can find are aftermarket, but I really don't want to go that direction.
I'm not opposed to used.
Suggestions?

1999 E320 4matic Wagon, 2005 C55 AMG - sold, 1998 VW Jetta TDI - sold, 2006 C230 Sport - Totaled :(
don't take me as 100% but i'm almost positive that it only comes as a whole assembly unless you special ordered it directly from MB and then it would prob be about as expensive, sorry

Yeah, that's what I figured. From a manufacturer's perspective, it doesn't make a lot of sense to sell the lenses by themselves, but I was hoping beyond hope.
Off to the store to grab some of the ghetto-fabulous tail light tape to keep the rain out this weekend.

Yes, the wagon tails are different part numbers...that makes them not only expensive, but kinda rare as well. RMEuropean has a couple in stock (drivers side) for $173. I've asked for a quote from a couple of dealerships that were recommended in other threads to see how they compare.
