5. here are some sites that you might find helpfull http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/?apwcid=X1093010841W41260599c6350&apwkwd=cheap+car+parts&gclid=CMeg27b605ACFQcugwodBGU9Ww&ef_id=1360:3:bcd54fc212ae7985bb118f7fb2d15945_683354049:ptxPjENIYX0AAC9FQX8AAAAP:20080101020933 http://www.partstrain.com/?source=adwords&s_kwcid={ifsearch:auto%20parts}|619022605&ef_id=1360:3:3b7641ebc56fa17fa05b9e1e6a3a1a07_619022605:qwY0YUNIYX0AAC9jNFEAAAAD:20080101021043 http://www.car-stuff.com/ http://www.nationalautopart.com/
6. Usually your town will have a salvage yard, or "pick & pull" type places...they R usually upfront about what they have...(is your car obsure or antique.....I might do a google seach using there tpyes of search words;then narrow to your specific make & model....onlineautosalvage.com etc. sometimes the "real world is better as you can see the overall maintence on the auto, & make offers...its less restrictive than online auctions like Greedbay,Shopsiilyya;and all thanks & good luck & happy new year mark
7. Ebay and Froogle are good be sure to do a bit of homework on the seller, otherwise sign up on a Volvo forum and look what others have said (they say everything there) plusthe forums give you DIY (do it yourself) instructions often with pics (way better then those that come with parts) and the right part to buy
8. You can also try www.rockauto.com they have a lot of stuff.
