The radio was the worst feature on 85 900T. I had to repair multiple cold solder joints before the FM section finally blew out. I replaced it with an aftermarket Clarion with a detachable face. Unfortunately, a couple of years ago, my Saab went to Valhalla (after 240,000 miles), but I kept the radio!
