  2. NG900 & OG9-3 Workshop

    I recently went from an 03' 9-3 ARC to an 05' 9-3 Linear. I liked the look of the head unit on the ARC and want to go to the pick and pull and grab one out of a wrecked car. Does anyone know if you can just swap them out? or does it mess with the fiberoptic loop? Thanks in advance for any help!!

    2001 9-3 SE Convertible (I think my car has only 4 speakers) So, I guess I'm just looking for confirmation that this is difficult to do because of the size of the double DIN head units. I had this dream of installing a video double din head unit and then snaking a backup camera to it to...

    I bought a 2003 9-3 linear with the 7 speaker system and the door speakers just played static as if they were blown so the first thing I did was change them out. That did not solve the problem. so I figured the amp was bad. I got an amp from a shop and put it in... got the exact same problem...

  14. NG900 & OG9-3 Performance, Mods & Tuning
    anyone know what's going on here? From what I've read there ought to be a connection for the amp on the right side of the head unit. Mine seems to just have the one on the back, which I thought was for the CD changer.. what can you all tell me? back: right: Just as an aside, I'm guessing...
