DRIVER'S SEAT AND DOOR PANEL QUESTIONS 850 1995

I will be picking up a 1995 850 sedan next weekend that I feel I got at a good price. Its only issue is that the driver's seat that is in the taupe cloth is in need of replacement so is the driver's side door panel. Does anyone know of someplace that would carry these items at a reasonable price? My local boneyard gets very few 850's of any kind so short of giving $$$$$ to the dealer, I'm up for suggestions. I would be able to reskin the driver seat if the fabric were available next to having to replace the entire seat as a unit.

Thanks in advance.....

    I can recommend Sweden Auto Warehouse. They're in Sacramento, CA, and I'm in northern Washington...2 days via UPS every time.

    Try one of the recyclers specializing in Volvos, like erievovo.com

    Or e-bay,CLICK!. The "buy it now' price on this pair of cloth seats is $120! Since the passenger seat will invariably hold up better than the sriver's perhaps an upholstery shop could switch the covers.

    I all else fails, a Volvo dealer can probably still order a new replacement seat cover.

    I have the cloth seats on my T5 (yes, it's unusual, but I ordered the car that way!) and it seems to be holding up better than leather would have.

    We're in the same boat. I am going to make several queries at auto upholsters next week. The dealer may help with a suggestion or two. Auto body shops can also steer you in the right direction.
