I adjusted the steering column tension - just a 14mm nut and it was a bit loose.
I went to Pep Boys - they carry Fiamm horns which are the same type and size as stock, so I replaced both - about $30.00. Intertestingly the terminals on the new horns are about 150 degrees from where the old horn's terminals are, so the harness was about 3" too short. I extended it (soldered and heat shrink) and I'm in good shape on that, now.
I am having a tough time removing the radio. I tried coat hangers, 16d nails, but I can't seem to 'unlock' it. Suggestions?
The front spoiler was repainted black at some time, and it's looking marginal, again. Will have to have it de-done, correctly.
Radio noise - I am thinking that snce it's only one rear channel that has the noise and that the rear channels are powered fromthe under seat amp, I may check the connectors on the amp.
Armrest - I may go with the Husco. The arm rest on the Saab Catalog website is only $104. I see mention of a $500 Saab armrest on this BB, so I'm not sure what the difference is, aside from the price.
Thanks!
