Default Place to find replacement parts?? Volvo 240

Anyone know of a good place to find replacement parts for old Volvos? I've called a lot of junk yards in my area and have only found one 240, mostly picked apart by now (probably because most of them are still on the road). I've had some luck with ebay, but I know there has to be other places online to find parts. I'm mostly looking for interior parts and some tail lights. Located in Charlotte, NC.

IPDusa.com, fcpeuro.com used to be my goto places for non-dealer stuff but both are carrying less and less for these older cars.

Keep in mind that any used parts that you get are going to be 25+ years old, minimum. That's the problem with driving older cars.

Last time that I checked, the fabric and cushion material is still available through Volvo. Years ago I bought the fabric for a 1987 model and had our local upholstery shop recover the seat back.

As far as tail lights, those things weren't the best from the beginning. I do see that Uro parts supplies them, both in black and chrome trim. They are priced reasonable.

Used parts are becoming hard to find due to the age of the vehicle.

I've had great success with FCP Euro as well. You don't hear a lot of bad about them. I have also had good luck with Tasca Volvo out of RI. They were able to get me some parts that my local dealer was telling me were NLA. Sure, I had to wait for them to come from Sweden, but at least I could get the part.
