Where do people buy euro specific parts?

I need some odds and ends for a swap I'll be doing in a bit. Specifically looking for M103 powered R107 parts. I'd imagine there are companies that can supply these parts. The dealer, autoparts stores in North America, and websites like Rock auto, FCP Euro, here, and ******** do not seem to have them.

The dealer can supply almost everything you need, but in some cases you will need to prove you actually own the car.

What are you looking for? Send me a PM, I have a dealer I work with who is always good about finding and getting me parts for grey market benzes.

I'm going to be needing pretty much everything for the cooling system and it will be good to have a source for mounts and bushings. Nothing crazy. My understanding is its difficult because they didn't make many r107s with that engine and there is not much oem support and the dealers are working with old stock. Frankly I'm not trying to pay the preimum for that but I'd imagine there are some good aftermarket options.
