    Hi, 👋🏻 New to the car scene…but I have just purchased a 2000 9-5 aero phase 1 with an as2 system and I’m absolutely in love apart from it dying 30 minutes after I bought it 😂 My question is, is there a way to fit a Bluetooth or aux adaptor to it without plugging into the cigarette lighter and...

    Sooner or later, most 20+ years old stereos are either giving up the ghost or doesn't have all the things which are nice like Bluetooth, USB and card slots. And especially with the older Saabs, the headunits of today do look like foreign objects. Clarion had provided some car audio for Saab in...

    Hi guys, first post on here hope I’m in the right place for this but I was hoping someone could shed some light with my stereo not turning on. I recently bought a 2004 Saab 93 Vector Tid with ICM1 installed but the previous owner had removed the CD drive part to fit an after market stereo in...

  10. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    Hey guys, I was wondering if I could ask for your help in diagnosing problems with my 2004 Saab 9-3's SID and radio. I don't know much about cars except for a general idea on how they run and where to turn my wrench. I bought this Saab a while back and the SID and radio didn't work. I had no...

    Hi all, I'm upgrading the sound system in my 2003 9-5 Aero wagon. There's so much room in this car! I yanked out the SAAB Park Assist control units, and now I have this relatively flat area between the rear seats and the depression for the spare tire where I'd like to mount my two amps. See...

    I have a 2005 9-3 arc, it has a random issue with the radio. It will randomly go out, audio and the lighting in the radio both go out. It’s like it completely lost power. It lasts about 4-5 seconds, then comes back on right where it was when it shut off. Sometimes it goes days without doing it...

    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!!
  14. NG 9-5 Workshop
    Good morning all. Reaching out to see if there are any updates on how to repair/replace the buttons that chip and peel for our radios. Last update on here was 2015 from what I found in a search and there wasn’t a resolution. I can’t figure out what buttons they used from GM to put together the...

    Hi all, Long-time lurker, first-time poster. My beloved Sun Green OG93 finally died (RIP to a modern classic :cry:) but I'm now the proud owner of a 2008 (57 plate) 9-3 Vector 1.8t! It's a whole new world. It had its first test the night I bought it - driving my parents to the airport in at...

    So, I love my 2003 Saab Arc 9-5 3.0t, but I'm sick of playing music through the cassette aux player, I've looked online and there's many options, installing an Android or touch screen Double DIN, or installing the Saab Nav thing, or doing some gypsy magic behind the dash and hooking up an Aux...
  17. NG900 & OG9-3 Performance, Mods & Tuning
    Simple question that may yield some not-so-simple answers: how hard is it to put a 6 3/4" speaker in the 9-3 door (given that the stock speakers are 6 1/2"). Is it as "simple" as tapping out screw holes for the 6 3/4", or does it require removing some of the door frame? Are there other...
  18. NG900 & OG9-3 Workshop
    A few years ago I installed an aftermarket stereo in my SAAB. It is the Kenwood KDC-BT318U. When I removed the stock stereo unit, it came with three harnesses. Using a part that was recommended or given to me (I don't remember) I was able to convert two of these harnesses into a single set of...

    I've looked around and have been unable to find a definitive answer. Hoping someone can point me in the right direction as I'm sure it's somewhere here on this forum. I have a 99 9-5 that I now use as a winter driver. I have owned it for about 10 years or so and have put on about 90,000 of it's...
