Replacement speaker cover 2008 v70/xc70

Wondering if anyone can help me source a replacement left rear passenger speaker cover for my MY2008 V70, it is at the base on the rear passenger door ? Should be same part as also used in an XC70
I managed to put a large hole through it , no other damage but it looks awful.
Spoke to my local Volvo dealer about getting a replacement. They have advised me they don't supply a replacement speaker cover separately, it can only be fixed if I replace the entire internal door skin at a cost of approx $1600-$1700 !!. I don't want to spend that type of money to replace a piece of plastic.
Spoke to Volvo Customer service here as well and they referred me back to the local dealer.
Anyone help ? Willing to pay to source anywhere in the world ??

Cheers,

Andrew

Go to www.erievovo.com these guys specialize in scrapping Volvos. The delaer is correct in that the cover is not a separate spare part. A crashed car with an otherwise damaged panel could have this removed and sold.
The speaker part has 4 (from memory) plastic pins that get heated and the end mushrooms and retains the speaker cover.
You do need to know the Volvo name for the interior color, it will be on the window sticker if it was kept in car after removal.
