: I just bought a 95 900S and as a first time Saab owner I have a few simple
: questions.
:
: 1. Daytime running lights, I know they're nice for safety but I want to
: control when the lights are on and off so DRL has to go, is it a simple as
: pulling a fuse and/or relay?
I know that there's a fuse that you pull. There might be something else,
too, but pull the fuse first and see if that works. I believe it's in the
interior fuse panel.
: 2. One of the headlight assembles was replaced last year after the old one
: cracked. The new light is nice and shinny and the old one has dulled glass.
: Is there anyway to pull the lens off the old one and polish it with some
: glass cleaner?
I don't think you'll be able to make it look as shiny as the other one,
but it's not too much trouble to remove the lens.
: 3. The plastic wheel centers (round cover for lung nuts) is pealing, what
: the best solution? Does the dealership want $100 a piece for new ones?
These are a dime a dozen at junk yards. Try calling a few. There's a big
pile of them at my independent; I can ask him about them if you'd like. I
know there's also silver alloy paint that you can get for the wheels, but
I don't know how well that would work.
: 4. I like the look of the 96 900's with the rear lights extended across the
: whole rear. What's involved in adding that plastic light/reflector piece to
: my 95?
Replacing the entire tailgate, I'd expect. I could be mistaken.
: 5. Last and not least, the front fog (driving light?) is burned out, I
: assume that to replace it you just remove the lens by removing the 2 screws
: located right above it.
Nope, that's a sealed unit. Those 2 screws are 2 of the 3 that hold the
fog light assembly in. You need to remove the splash guard from under the
bumper and then there's a cover on the underside of the fog light assembly
that you can remove to get to the bulb. Kind of a pain, really.
