Great job, I'm lucky enough to already have a set of Hirsch grilles on my Turbo X, but if I didn't I'd definitely be doing this.

Looks great! Technically the sides are supposed to be solid because of the intake snorkel and battery vent snorkel but I doubt you'll have any issues.

[@Belal-Khan]

Looks really good. I need to do this to my car as well. First I need to find a set of grills from the junk yard as I don't want to risk breaking the parts on the car currently.

[@DeltaCharlie27]

Tack. Beautiful work. I did something similar on a lower radiator grille of a Porsche 997, using metal mesh as opposed to plastic. I used self-tapping screws and it's held up beautifully. The mesh was black gutter covers from Lowes. In your case, an additional step was to have to cut out the original part - I suspect that's a lot of work.

[@janihalttunen5501]

Good morning. OMG it came out awesome. Now your turbo x look perfect!

[@JonasKakarikas]

Good morning! Thanks 🙏

[@mercedeslove4291]

Looks great, I have just bought a 9-5 yesterday haven't had one in many years, greetings from Ireland

[@xxxDlewisxxx]

Great work Jonas. I created something similar for my 06 9-5 and followed a similar process. The mesh does seem to improve airflow to the radiator. Curious, I wonder how the grille effects cooling under a high output application with big intercooler and such. I plan to make another soon with a different design, maybe side vents too. I will try the plastic welding method in the future. 👍🏽

[@juancuruchet207]

Very nice job, excellent idea to my son 08 9-3 aero , thanks

[@northshorecottager668]

Another great video from Jonas's Saab laboratory! Looks awesome! I'd like to know if you notice any difference in operating temperatures with the better air flow in the engine compartment.

[@JonasKakarikas]

Thanks 🙏 it is definatly cooler now. I dont have any before/after numbers though

[@caractacusbrittania7442]

If your in England, A 2006 ford fiesta has a honeycomb grill, If you remove it, turn it upside down, it will fit perfectly as the lower grill section on the saab 93. Trust me it fits.

[@M3ow_pawzz]

Is this for the Mk2 saab 9-3? Mine is the Aero convertible 2006

[@caractacusbrittania7442]

It's for the new gen 2007 on.

[@elianodie9088]

@@caractacusbrittania7442why only for people in England? There’s 2006 ford fiestas in my country too lol

[@countryside_hobbies]

18:37...19:30 was definitely best part of the video, despite also the rest being extremely useful 😁

[@algin9583]

Hi Jonas, very good job, it looks wonderful 👍👏

[@tjas659]

🙏

[@nigelbird1228]

How much to ship one to the UK Jonas? Absolutely stunning workmanship!

[@JonasKakarikas]

Thank you, but I don't build/sell these

[@siwy5485]

Looks good. Good job Jonas. 🤗

[@johnkall705]

Riktigt snyggt! 💪 har varken verktyg eller tid egentligen… skulle du kunna tänka dig att göra en grill åt mig mot ersättning?

[@JonasKakarikas]

Tack, tyvärr ingenting jag gör.

[@AngelGarcia-ik7uo]

Great job looks excellent

[@2TOKE69]

Alltid mkt roligare att göra ngt eget med ju! 💪🤗

[@JonasKakarikas]

Absolut 😎

[@Jappmannen]

Man borde ju kunna få ännu bättre fogar om man tillför lite ABS-filament när man smälter det samman. Då blir det ju som en riktig svetsfog lixom. Funderar på att göra nåt liknande både på min OG9-5 men även på en OG9-3 om det är möjligt.

[@werwolf247]

Sweeeeeet! Good Job!

[@JonasKakarikas]

Thanks 🙏😎

[@TheHell666yeah]

Great job

[@JonasKakarikas]

Thanks 👌

[@swedishsaabguy1808]

Nice. Where did You buy the new mesh grill (the one you cut it from)

[@JonasKakarikas]

Dalhems.se 👌

[@Ma.the.Dopest]

Looks great!

[@knugen889]

Riktigt snyggt gjort 😃 Får göra den nedre grillen med. Själv tänkt o göra det på min 9-5.

[@Minnesotagrowerz]

I need to replace a ecm in my 2002 saab 9-3 se I bought a used one from eBay that supposedly came out of a running car. can I just throw it in without having to reprogram?

[@JonasKakarikas]

Pretty sure it needs to be programmed to your specific car with tech2

[@lething931]

Hope your Turbo X will find a good new owner.

[@AstralWalkerOne]

Vart jäkligt bra. Vad ligger Hirsch grillen på idag, har kvar en sprillans ny i kartong.

[@JonasKakarikas]

Brukar ligga ute för 6-8000sek

[@AstralWalkerOne]

​@@JonasKakarikas Vilken spån man är, skimmade direkt till byggandet. såg nu att du tog upp pris i starten av videon. Tack för att du svarade i alla fall. 👍

[@JonasKakarikas]

Lugnt 😎

[@Bulldogv5]

Great job bro

[@godfreybash7995]

Hello, I'm looking for a 3-piece honeycomb grille for a Saab Turbo X project. Could you consider making one for me? I am willing to pay for your hard work and skills in makin a similar one. humbly looking forward to your response.

[@JonasKakarikas]

Hi, sorry i dont have time to make for others. Thats why i showed how to do it in a video 😎 so that Saab fans around the world could make there own 🙏

[@Vryndar]

Riktigt snyggt. Hur gjorde du med mitten-delen för att hålla clipsen öppna? Såg att ditt mönster inte är centrerat efter hålen om det gör skillnad? Gjorde ett försök med det men nätet går för på flera av clipsen som går till kromet och klipper man för att öppna upp så syns det.

[@JonasKakarikas]

Lyckades smälta precis så det inte syns 👌

[@Vryndar]

​@@JonasKakarikas Tack! Haha snyggt, det är verkligen precision på det här.. Får se om jag kan lyckas med detsamma då. Annars tror du det skulle gå att köra gamla varianten (sätta fast mot bara kromet)? Men både smälta och limma?

[@JonasKakarikas]

Går gör det, men hur det håller över tid eller sitter fast mot fronten är svårt att säga

[@user-sn1lo8el6z]

Турбо Икс.... Ммммм,вы гурман. Респект из России

[@mikecrawford2999]

Did this on my 2003 93

[@markonikitovic6530]

Grymt

[@redbackup]

hur mycket vill du ha för att göra detta på en till turbo x? :)

[@JonasKakarikas]

Tyvärr inget jag gör åt andra, du får. Följa videon 😎

[@cgcrantz3544]

Tack för tipset Jonas! Ska testa på min Dame Edna……

[@JonasKakarikas]

Gör du rätt i 😎👌

[@erikhagelin6374]

Synd att det inte var en 9-5 2005 grill . Har en som skräpar i garaget till ingen nytta 😅

[@JonasKakarikas]

Går ju göra precis samma till den 😎

[@Aero8899]

Can this be done on the 9-5

[@JonasKakarikas]

Yes it can, could be done on any abs plastic grille

[@tjas659]

When I buy my dreamed Turbo X I will do it theseme and I will wach your films again steps by steps. You make very very very good job for Saab Fans!👍 If you want to sell this TX please let me know because next 2 years I will spent in Sweden so is easy to reach you 😊 regards from Poland temporary from STO.

[@JonasKakarikas]

🙏🙏🙏

[@sinbrad]

Could you have not just reversed the first side grill to make it exact?

[@JonasKakarikas]

Try it 👍

[@marekkeerand279]

I wonder if i should make this mod on 9-5ng.

[@JonasKakarikas]

Could Hard to find a new oem if you cut it

[@shaheedwazir5527]

Can I just buy it off youuu

[@JonasKakarikas]

Car is already sold..

[@terrycainarmit1982]

Looks great 👌
