I'd go to dealer for parts - but either they charge over retail or require bulk orders 850 1995

If i can lookup a part on an internet volvo site i see a retail price and a nice discount price. If I go to the local volvo dealer they seem to charge 30% over retail. A slightly less convenient dealer offered a better price but said I have to order 10 of them.

The internet site seem to be fabulous for ordering big parts, but if you need the nuts or smaller items they are just not listed.

So recently asked here about a rusty fuel related gizmo in order to get a part # vs going to the dealer. It seems like I'll need an expert to understand better why my car has just one 02 sensor. Even the dealer guys don't have much time and would seem happy to sell me the wrong part to get me out quick. I don't think they'd take my one 02 sensor assertion seriously and the big internet sites show some 02 sensor as just unavailable from the dealer.

When I had the dealer replace my exhaust system 6 years ago i was disappointed they didn't replace the rusty rear bracket. Now I think they are NLA. Anybody have that part # or even the # for the 2 bolts.

BTW my car is not a turbo - it's the cheapy with manual tranny.
Early 95 made in 94.
