Need european sources for used parts 850 1994

I know I probably shouldn't even THINK about doing this, but:

I'd really love to put a manual transmission into my automatic 850. I haven't been able to find a wrecked manual 850 to cannibalize as a parts car. Does anybody know a good used parts source in Europe? I've been told that manual transmission 850s are much more prevalent there.

I figure this would be much cheaper than buying the parts from the Volvo dealer.

Need european sources for used parts 850 1997

Why not just buy/trade your auto for a manual??!! Depending on where you are located, it should be a an easy trade. don't expect to find too many turbo 5-speed post-'95 though. Or go to/look at ads in Canada, where you should find more 850 manuals than the USA. good luck, BD
