saab parts warehouse?

So I'm looking to mess around with my rear suspension this week; last time, the threads of the e20 star bolts for the bottom of the shock absorber didn't look so good, but I threw them back in 'cause I didn't have anything else. So I call up my local Saab dealer (an hour away) and they say that there are only five bolts in the entire western US, in their warehouse. For $4 each, they'll take five days to arrive, and I have to prepay for special orders. In addition, I have to actually go to the dealership in person to make this order, can't do it by phone. I can't believe I have to drive an hour and back to order parts that I'll have to drive another two hours to pick up five days later; for two stupid screws! (ok, done ranting)
So does anyone know where the saab parts warehouse is? Can I order parts directly from them? I've tried checking all the online places, and can't seem to find the bolt anywhere. Anywhere else they'd have 'em? Or do any other dealerships require you to order parts in person? (i.e., I can order from another dealership further away and pick them up...)
btw, the Sacramento Saab dealership is never helpful.
