Yes, it is not much , but I do not think SAAB is trying to fool anybody here with this little feature.
Porsche 928 introduced the feature with exact principle over 20 years ago, so this is nothing new to the industry, and expected performance should not be too dissapointed as soon as one realizes it's just one tiny vent directed into the grove box. The feature is mentioned in the catalogue but in quite plain language and not overly stated. To me it's no big deal.
I second Aerolady as far as what to expect from it. It is kind of sad that the tiny grove box light sitting right next to the vent feels like capable of generating more heat than the cooler can ever handle.
I think they should have rather directed some cool air inside the stereo head so that CD's and tapes are not as hot as toast right out of oven when ejected. I'm wondering if SID pixel failure may be related to the heat as well.
