So you're saying the 10c piece went into the radio, or got stuck coming from the top of the dash? I'm having problems figuring out how a coin got into the radio. On a side note, I've dropped coins into the hand break slot. I wonder if something is shorting out by the ignition switch, and if it was, would that cause the same problem? (I'm still mystified that Saab puts the key in the middle of the floor, rather than on the dash like every other car maker that I've ever looked at. :-) Robert "dcm" <dcmoylenospamvethisword.optusnet.com.au> wrote in message news:<40aab702$0$8988$afc38c87nospam.optusnet.com.au>... > This happened to a friend of mine's 9-5.
