2004 SAAB 9-3 Questions?

[Trey]

Hi, I have just purchased a 2004 SAAB 9-3 Aero and I have a few questions I can't seem to find anywhere else. First off, is there a navigation system compatible in the US? Second, is it possible to install different speakers and/or an after market audio receiver (deck as some may call it). Thanks!!!

Be careful when switching audio unit. It is married to the anti theft system and should not be just removed like that. It needs to be divorced first and then the new unit married to the anti theft system. Please get professional help on this matter and your dealer is the best place to do that. There is an upgrade kit available from SAAB, you can find it in the Accessories book. No need to change the audio unit, just add an amplifier and new and better speakers, which are part of this kit available from Saab.

Look up in the same Accessory book the Navigation unit available and waranteed from Saab before you venture into after market products.
