Ya, my two previous Saabs were salvage vehicles. The '92 9kt
was hit real high in the front, enough for the airbag to deploy, but
high enough above the bumper so that only sheetmetal like fenders,
hood, radiator support, etc., were hit. No structural damage at all.
I bought that with only 33k miles for $5k in '95. Even using OEM
Saab sheetmetal, I had the vehicle back on the road for under $10k.
The salvage yard sold me the airbag, SRS, seatbelts, and sensors
for $600. I'm sure the insurance co. totaled it because of the airbags.
I'd hate to think of what it would have cost to purchase them from
Saab, even with the 20% discount Village Saab gives me. I did the
same thing with an '84 900, many moons ago - same thing, hit
high in the front. They're real easy fixes and definitely worth fixing
up!
