Another miner detail that bugs me: the front fog lights switch lights up when you depress it, but you can't see it readily because it is hidden behind the steering wheel. On the other hand, the rear fog light switch, which is not hidden by the steering, does not light up when in use because it has a warning light on the dash.(try to understand that logic??) And YES, when I encounter fog and need to give the road more attention, I wish I did not have to search for the damn fog light switch, which does not light up until it is depressed. Indeed, sometimes I wonder if these designers drive cars. It is especially bothersome when you read all the hype from Saab about the thoroughness of the interior design «built around the driver» crap. And who gives a damn about the useless On star! I also totaly agree that in normal driving conditions, all you need is normal driving lights. The more reason why it should be easy to find switchs for other lifghts used occasionaly. Why not one switch for both fog lights? When there is fog, or a snow blizzard, you should have them both on. It does make you wonder sometimes if they have a contest at Saab to see how many switchs they can fit on a dash. No wonder there is not enouph place left for more than one cup holder, albeit a clever one.
