Subject: Wheel Locks for Saab


I just went through a whole run-around looking for wheel locks for my 900. To save you the headache I went through, here is some valuable information when buying wheel locks for you Saab. Saab sells McGard locks with Saab packaging. If you buy the locks from Saab, they cost $75. McGard locks are commonly available in stores and cost between $10 and $35, depending when and where you get them. If you call McGard directly, they will tell you they cannot/do not sell "Saab" locks and that you must get them through Saab. After a great deal of looking around, I ended up finding a set that fit exactly (same model number and measurement as Saab's locks). I bought them in a car stereo store for $32. There are times when the Saab part is worth the cost (i.e. most tune-up and replacement parts or accessories) but other times Saab just resells commonly available parts under their name (i.e. McGard wheel locks, Clarion CD-Changers) with a 100%-150% markup over retail. It is important to know that these options exist.
