You can theoretically order manuals from any dealer...

...and any dealer that says they can't get them is lying. What they mean is that they *won't* sell them, as they figure they'll lose service business. Since the early 80's I've bought them from local dealers, another in New Orleans (now the "local" dealer for me in Baton Rouge), and my last set from Camelback in Phoenix, where I received a generous discount. Camelback no longer sells Saabs or parts, but the new Phoenix dealer is Kachina at 800-955-1205, who claims to be carrying on the same mail-order discount policy.
While many dealers may sell manuals, most won't discount them. I shopped around and patronized the dealer giving the lowest quote.
When purchasing manuals, you can get the entire set for $500 or more, beautifully bound in tough metal binders--but they can be purchased piecemeal. Buying the entire set includes manuals you may not need, like a separate book for manual and auto transaxles.
