TG, I have it in my 9-3 conv. Someone on this board was kind enough to send me the directions for hooking up the SAAB pigtail. It isn't obvious. You will need the CARK-91H or CARK-91US from Nokia, assuming you have a 6100 or 5100 series phone. Unfortunately the only kit for the 8860 is one of those plug in the lighter units. (To answer the question asked by gatorcpa, I like the automute and the sig other smokes.)
On my car, a 99 9-3 SE conv, the "pre-wired side of the SAAB harness wasn't so pre-wired. I had to physically run wires for some things. The car side of the SAAB harness had no connections to the speakers, mike by the mirror, or the signal that mutes the radio. Nokia advises that you use the mike that comes with their kit and place it at the bottom of the speedometer housing. Also their speaker mounts nicely under the dash. I did not wire the speakers, as I already had the Nokia unit and if you want to hear the tones of dialing, the Nokia speaker is a requirement as I recall.
The other thing you will need is the phone mount from SAAB there is a large and a small, I have the large 'cause it was what was in stock at the dealer. I would wait for the small if I had it to do over again.
The reason I have not offered to send the directions is I no longer have the image file. I do have hard copy some where in the mess that is my unpacked house from last weekend's move. Once I get unpacked I can send if I find it. (My filing sytem is great! My retrieval system needs work on occasion)
I really enjoy it, the phone rings, the radio mutes, the SID displays "TELEPHONE" and the phone auto answers. Pretty nice when you are turning a corner and downshifting, or drinking your morning coffee when the phone rings.
later,
