Having difficulty finding...(850 Sedan) 850 1995

I'm trying to find the "roof trim" or also known as a "drip moulding" (?) for my 1995 850 T-5R sedan. I need them for both sides of the car, and I've found them a few places but the cheapest is $115.71 PER SIDE, which I'd rather not pay for no more than a couple trim pieces... If anyone knows anywhere I can buy them cheaper (used is fine), or has any for sale themselves from a salvage 850 sedan or something, I'd appreciate your posting :)

Here's my current source (myswedishparts.com) if you're still not sure what I was talking about...

Thank you,

    I was shopping in a junkyard last week that is out of my way to drive to and saw a S70 that still had them on it. I live on the south of Orlando. They are in the east of Orlando. I might be persuaded to get them but I would have to make a special trip. How much are you willing to pay? Don't forget to figure in shipping from Orlando, Florida to you. You can e-mail me at abf55@yahoo.com

    Hey Chambs.

    I went to an auto junk yard and got two very nice roof strips for $10.50. Have you tried auto salvage yards? also, alot of guys stripped the strips and repainted. That is another option

      Eureka on the slavage yards ..

      The stealer wants waayy too much for the trim. I found a set on E-bay for the price of one from the stealer, however a local salvage yard here had a good set for way less money. I should have picked them up! :(

      Cheers!

        I've been perusing Ebay looking for these (I have found several parts on there in the past), but unfortunately I don't have a local salvage yard to check through. Thanks for the ideas guys - I'll keep looking :) If anyone else has any ideas, let me know!

          Just remove the old ones and sand them to shiny metal and repaint them.

          A few hours of work(max) and a can of paint.

          Worked for me- and this from an original owner who spares very little expense toward maintaining his vehicles.
