  1. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    Good evening! I wonder if anyone can give me a hand with the following problem... I have finally got fed up with the collapsed driver's seat on my 2006 Sportwagon, and decided to replace both front seats. Luckily enough, I was able to find a very smart pair of seats for a saloon on Ebay. From...

  3. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Hi, I've got 1999 9-5 and thinking about upgrading to a 2004 aero or a 2006 sportcombi. Do the later model Saabs have airbag protection for the rear passengers? The dealer says the 2006 sportcombi has 6 airbags (front, side and pillar) but from what I can see on the web, the 9-5s only have the...
  4. Classic Saab 9-3/GM900 (1994 - 2002)/Conv ( -2003)
    Read in the manual of my lovely new (to me) 93 that one should never put a baby seat - font or rear facing in the passenger seat because of the airbag.. Very sensible of course but i seem to recall that previous cars i've had could switch off the passenger airbag, can you not do that in a saab...
  5. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    After a small bump that set off both airbags they need to be replaced. Is it enough to just replace the bags or do the sensor and other gizmos need to be changed as well? I am getting some second hand ones. Similarly, I will need new seat belts. Do the pre-tensioners need to be replaced as...
  6. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Hello there, this is my first post as I am looking to upgrade my VW with a safer car, and have a 9-5 in mind, so hello to you all! I have had a look at the EuroNCAP results, and they mention that the 9-5 was fitted with a head airbag in the seats, however I can't find any other references to...
  7. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    I just know this is going to sound mad (especially when I've seen a good few queries about how to take them out), but does anyone know if its possible to fit driver/passenger bags to a '93 9000? I know the obvious answer is 'sell it and buy a later one', but the car in question is a mint, 1...
  8. Classic Saab 900 (1979 - 1993)
    It's oh so complciated trying to figure out what boss you need for what car and or sterring wheel. I have a 1993 900 CET and I can't figure out what I need to buy to get my carlsson steering wheel to fit. The airbag has been not working for years and it's time to take he thing out. Will a...

    Go on, whose going to be first to point it out then... According to the blurb:- "Toyota Twin-Chamber Airbag Most front airbags resemble large pillows. Toyota’s twin-chamber version looks more like a hot dog bun. In an accident, the passenger’s head is sandwiched by two chambers, reducing...

    Just wondered, if I ever considered buying a 10 year old 900 or 9000 fitted with an airbag(s), should one have these replaced?? Isn't that rather expensive??
  11. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Being relatively new to Saab ownership, I'm just trying to get an answer to some simple questions. I understand that you cannot put a child seat in the front as the airbag prevents this, (or can it be simply deactivated?) but doesn't a 9-5 SE estate have more airbags dotted all over the place...
  12. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Is there a simply way (like a fuse) for disconnecting the passenger front airbags (& side). Reason for this is that when the wife drives the car(i kinda trust her!! ) with the baby, she would like to have her in her chair in the front with her, as in the rear she cannot see the baby as the...
  13. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    So I was looking at a chipped 1991 9000 Turbo, bright red, fpt hatch. And the srs light blinks for a few seconds then stays on solid. I know that means that there is a airbag malfunction but any tips on what to do/what the problem most likely is? Thanks.

    Has anyone removed the dash on a dual airbag saab? I want to get the dash off but there is ONE BLIMY screw behind the SRS logo that I have no idea how to get to. HELP!

  17. Classic Saab 900 (1979 - 1993)
    Can anyone confirm if airbags were fitted as standard on any of the c900s? The Bentley manual is a little vague & seems to indicate that they were on most late models, but I presume that there would be some external indication if they were present (stickers etc). (Don't really want to remove...

    Hi Folks, Haven't been on this site for quite a while, but need help urgently. I am about to part with money in the purchase of a 1997 ( ? ) 2.0LPT CSE. The car seems clean, is coming from a trusted source & I have seen the Log Book which quotes first reg of Jan 1997. Trouble is, the car does...

    I recently bought my Fiancee a new Renault Clio and last week she was in very slow moving traffic coming into Glasgow when there was an almighty bang. The airbag which is the left hand side of the passenger seat had activated and the car cut out. She called the police out who towed her to a...
