I love those Saabs I have a 2002 Saab convertible as my second car. Great video thank you subscribing for the Saab 93 content.
Thanks for the sub!
You my good sir, have earned yourself a new subscriber!! very nice informative video. Thank you
Also very informative and nice video! Thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
really great video, thanks for sharing! are there detailed instructions on how to wire the amp anywhere? or did you already just have this knowlege? also, did you find it absolutely necessary to create that mount from scrap metal, or is it possible to secure the amp to the stock setup? Ive replaced my speakers but things still dont sound great and I'm assuming it's a power issue so thinking an amp replacement is probably necessary.
I’m glad you liked it. Admittedly, I’ve installed dozens of audio systems, so I might have glossed over the wiring. Basically, an amp needs constant power, a ground, and a remote turn on signal (so it turns on and off with the stereo). Given that there was an old amp that had power and ground wires, I reused them. I tested which wire was which with my multi meter. For the remote turn on, I connected the wire to the power antenna connection. Other than that, its audio in and audio out.
@@randomtasks very helpful, THANKS!
Have a question about the amp install
Why did you not opt for extra sound padding in the doors, and what can i expect music wise, is it really good? Going to use your tips to fix our really broken 2001 blue aero
I didn’t go it because I didn’t have any handy. Either way, it sounded good to me. I was happy with the setup.
Looking for a cost effective way to add aux or Bluetooth to an og 9-3. Cdconnect is a nearly $200. Is there an alternative way to accomplish this? Love the idea of the cdconnect, but that price is steep.. For that price I could add an aftermarket head unit
I’ve got another video on how I modified a Jeep head unit to add an aux input. There might be away to do something similar, but I haven’t investigated it. Alternatively, you could do an FM modulator.
Wish we had DBA here in the US.
You have things like Sirius, but that’s not free like DAB.
@@randomtasks Ya but that free part
Why didn't you opt for the bluetooth CD Connect? I just ordered mine in bluetooth today
The Bluetooth CD connect is not handsfree compatible. In addition, I wanted DAB in my car. The Pure Highway 600 gives me both features.
Doesn't the pure highway 600 output in Mono only?
No, it has a stereo output.
Did you change the rear speakers?
Yes, check the description for the exact model. They are fairly easy to swap out.
@@randomtasks thanks, gotta check then out. Did you have to do any fitting work or did they just go straight in
@@Attack-fb5rj There was no modification work required, although I think I might have mounted them from the bottom instead of the top. I would need to watch the video to check, so I recommend you do that.
The speakers are covered in the Part 1 video.
@@randomtasks allright, I somehow missed the part where you did the rear speaker install but I will look again. Been looking for fitting size speakers for the 9-3, thanks a lot.
