You would think that buying a *~$40k* Saab would.... but yes. My problem was I just strolled in on a whim hoping someone could take care of it on the spot (I was willing to make an appointment though). Also the dealer typically doesn't 'finish off' installs that the owners do.
At my Subaru dealer I am known as 'the guy who always wants to install his own accessories', apparently. Also now at the Saab dealer.
The sliding load floor was also a pretty simple install. The unfortunate thing (which I was aware of before I bought it) is that it is not really compatible with the big rubber trunk mat. You need to get either of the 'four piece' cargo mat sets which of course don't contain snow and dirt as well as the big rubber one with a lip around it.
For now I am just using the rubber mat over it and will remove it if I need to use the floor (I have a back problem).
Again, I can't say enough good things about this car. Build quality (fit/finish etc) is even better than the NG900 we had - even if you can't adjust the door catches. :) Driving it is a dream.
And I still miss my classic 900T.
