Default Headlight (euro) wanted for '88 Jag XJ-S

Does anyone know where I can get a driver's side euro headlight? The headlight cannot come from a right hand drive car like those in England and Australia.
It cannot be the plastic lights in the later models, but a glass headlight.
I've tried Welsh Enterprises, and a few other places, and the last time my mechanic got one he found it in Belgium, and he paid $850. for it.
My insurance company is covering the cost of the light minus $100. deductible, but that is better than the whole $850.
The real problem is not the price, but the availability of these lights, because many of the XJ-S's came with the quad lights.
If you know of ANYBODY with a parts car, or a Jaguar wrecking yard that may have parts I'd be ever so grateful.
thank you, Donna
