Default WANTED Volvo 850 T-5 Front Brake Calipers

I’m looking for both front brake calipers for my 1995 850 T-5, or a suggestion as to whom sells good new ones. Both of mine are seized as the car has been sitting for a couple of years, however I will rebuild these, but need working calipers for when the car goes back on the road!

Thanks in advance

I've used Brakes International before and I've been happy with them. That being said, I'd recommend rebuilding your current ones instead, or buying used from eBay and rebuilding those. About £50 a corner cheaper and rather simple to do.
