TW, I was told by the installer that the installed mic was crap, I'm NOT saying that. I use the installed mic at the moment with my CARK-91 and a 6210, this works well. BTW I found that the pod that SAAB recommend is a might big in my 9-5 and I bought a bracket from www.dashmount.co.uk (just tried their site and I can't get in though) that goes down by the 12v socket on the left of the wood dash surround.
