In 2003 the aux cable was not included, but can be bought at any SAAB dealership for ~$40. http://www.genuinesaab.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=44_45&products_id=227 It's pretty easy to install but requires some fiddling around with the center console to run the cable and pull out the radio to plug it in the back. Oh, the aux cable uses the same input connector that a trunk mount CD Changer would use, so if you already have that option I believe you are out of luck. My '03s both have the in-dash CD changers, so I was OK to add the aux cables. -- -Fred W '03 9^3 Vector (mine) '03 9^3 Arc (daughter's) '98 900SE (other daughter's) '98 900S coupe (son's)
