Then the next part that is required is to take the car to the dealer once you have installed it (they will charge you 1/2 hr for labor), to ENABLE the AUX In menu within the INFOTAINMENT section. > > > > The SAAB tech needs of course the TECH-2 along with the GM KANDI adapter to activate this item. > > > > I have posted my photos where I bought this below. > > > > http://genuinesaab.com/gallery/aux93ss?page=1 > > Nice pics. I ought to advise you though that there's no such thing as a 1/8" mini jack audio connector. Seems to be a popular US misconception. The usual one is actually 3.5mm . The very small one is 2.5mm. > > Graham Graham, That's probably true, that's what everyone's called it and the industry has named it for years here though. Check it out on radioshack.com, the U.S.A's "neighborhood" electronics store that's basically in every darn town and city. http://www.radioshack.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=CTLG&product%5Fid=42-2387 That's the cable I got connecting my MP3 player. I took the photos that I thought were of best interest. I hope to see more people getting this gadget. It's soo sad that Saab didn't market this much more. I saw NO literature about this in their advertising period. I was going to give up as I thought it was a typical "EUROPE ONLY" option, but to my surprise it wasn't! :) I hope to enlighten more people out there with their 9-3 SS!! SaabGuy
