[s-cars] Best place to source Euro head light lens?

O.k.  The saga of the headlamp rebuild continues.

I finally managed to figure out a method for repairing/recasting the 
plastic internal reflector mounting clips I broke three weeks back 
(thanks to those of you who kindly offered replacement clips if needed).

So tonight I start putting everything back together, and in the process 
had driver's side headlamp lens crack while re-installing the metal 
clips that hold it down on the housing.  Lovely.  I'm guessing the lens 
was already weak since the crack went right through a stone chip in the 
lens.

So does anyone have a spare S4 headlamp lens lying around they'd like to 
part with?  As an alternative, does anyone know the part number for the 
Euro lenses (without the fluting in front of the high beam), and where 
the best place to order them from is?  I've already dropped Alex at 
Europrice an email.  Any other good sources?

The lenses I have now are Canadian spec which I believe are the same as 
the DOT spec lamps in the U.S. with no fluting in front of the low or 
fog lights, and only wide vertical fluting in front of the high beam. 
The part number on the cracked Driver's side lens I have now appears to 
be 301-137-189-08, with DOT, SSB 370, TN-55, and SAE HRF 91 stamped onto 
the lens also.

Thanks list!
