    My classic 1993 Saab 900 Turbo has the SRS & Anti lock light on dash. Nobody including the go to Saab specialist here in Vancouver has a scanner to diagnose the issue. Can anyone help out with a local specialist or to let me know what scanner to buy? Thanks so much!

    I have just bought a nextbase hardwire kit for my dash cam, from looking in the Haynes manual wiring diagrams it appears that the fuses in the passengerside compartment are all live pre ignition. Can someone please tell me I'm wrong or the diagrams are crap, otherwise I'm going to need to locate...

    My 2008 tdi Vector Sport has the plain black plastic dash. I fancy one of those leather Hirsch dash surrounds, and am thinking of getting a professional leather trimmer to cover a the dash surround, to create something similar. Just wondered if anyone else has done this? At the same time I'm...

    Got that car back from a "family" mechanic with all the center dash panels flopping around. Doesn't seem to be a fastening location for this mount. Not sure what to use here Sent from my LG-H900 using Tapatalk

    Guys, Doing a bit of work on a friends '96 9000 Aero and have replaced the SID unit 'cause it was very faint. The replacement is just the same and I now notice that the dash display ( fuel consumption, auto gear lever indicator, etc. ) is also very faint. Any ideas ? Paul @ Kippen

    The part highlighted in the photo below with the red oval, our Saab currently has a piece of rubber pipe there, and I want to replace it with the correct trim as in the photo, is this some kind of cup holder trim? Reason I ask is there appears to be what looks like a hinge...

    Yup, another day, and another request for help. Ever since getting our Saab 9-3 2.0i petrol, 1999, the drivers door doesn't turn on the interior light, nor does the dash make the audible sound when door open. I guess this is related to the door pin switch?

    Sorry if I'm being thick but I have searched all over for the answer to this and keep getting answers to the removal of other stuff like vents and stereo. What I want to do is remove the silver/chrome beading around the edge of my 93 sportwagon dash. (see pic) I can get a couple of inches away...

    Hi all, I have a 2008 9-3 TTID Can someone please tell me where the gauge on the dash is getting the reading from? Is it taken from the inlet manifold via a vacuum/pressure pipe or is it from what the ecu is reading?

    I have just got a 2007 9-3 convertible and the SID display below the speedometer has some pixels stuck on. Is there an easy fix for this? I have seen fixes for the earlier model SID but nothing for this type. Its really annoying as you can see it every time you drive. How big of a job would it...

    Hatchback dash light stays on all the time. I replaced the weather stripping for the hatchback and I thought maybe I didn't have it on right and this was causing the light to show that it's not latched. But when I checked it it was latched. I have noticed that when I lock the car with the remote...

    Hi Has anyone got one of these? Also, does anyone know if it has a code like the head unit does? I usually replace the Saab units with modern all singing and dancing head units, but this time I'd like to keep the original Saab look in the dash. The head unit and amp provide good sound quality...

    When i switch my car off and lock it, the clock on the SID and the illumination on the ICM and climate control stay on. I have read on here that it may be a fault with the ignition switch. Can the switch just be swapped or will i need to have the key recoded or will i need Tech2 for any reason...
