You can talk to Erie Volvo, they may have something for you. They do offer warranties as well.

That's where I got mine, and I'm very happy with it.

I got a replacement from Erie and needed them to honor the warranty. It was a good experience all around. They may not be the cheapest, but they stand behind what they sell.
