Upgrading a Subscribers Saab 9-3!

In this video I work with Ethan, a fellow Saab enthusiast, to upgrade the interior on his 2007 Saab 9-3 to the one year only 60th anniversary seat set. In the process we even convert his manual passenger seat into powered. If you found this video helpful, be sure to like, share and subscribe!

Bro, I have made upgrades to my Saab 9-3 thanks to your videos. Please make a video on how to make the button to open the trunk work, the one located between the license plates. I installed it on my 2008 Aero but it doesn't work. Same with the fuel filler door lock.

[@user-fh1rz1uq6c]

Thanks for sharing. Very good guide.

[@PhillipArthur-yn2ld]

Hello Gary you also upgraded my saab 9-3 with two cupholders one you gave me and the other I bought from you thank you so much.

[@WeakestofWeeks]

Thanks for sharing Phillip I forgot about that! Hope all is well!

[@jlrdKaiser]

Good job, very professional. thank you

[@AstralWalkerOne]

Have done the same install, I think you need to change al beige trim to black.. I did it on mine and it look 👌

[@marcoalexander6214]

I'm not familiar with the back seat area of the 9-3, perhaps a wire loom comes in somewhere with some gaps or something, but agree - most of the time mice get inside cars via the HVAC system.

[@skooistra1766]

for me ... with the white car i'd stuck with the cream interior but I can see why you'd like the other set ^^.

[@Hopperchops]

Id love to do this to my Cab it has Cream leather seats but they are pretty cracked.

[@adampatriksson3014]

As an Saab fan, I have been locking more on the 9-4x. Do you have any advice where to be look in the states?

[@jlrdKaiser]

please note :- . Brown Cable:..........in video minute 18:11............ • The brown wire, is usually ground or negative in most car components.

Love the new interior. I have the white in mine and starting to look very worn after 17 years of use. Got a question. I had to replace an 9-3 2007 front passenger door with a 9-3 2003 door due to an accident. Everything installed and rehooked up but no power to the door for locks/window/mirror.

[@asssiesgaming453]

Which door wiring loom did you use?

[@troyvsc]

@@asssiesgaming453 I just plugged the same wiring harnesses to the same locations that that i disconnected I think.

[@asssiesgaming453]

@@troyvsc but did you build everything from your old door in to the New door?

[@troyvsc]

@@asssiesgaming453 Yes the 03 door as the trim, mirror, electronics from the 07 door except for the wiring harness that is was on the 03 door itself.

[@SJSOmar]

I would like to buy that interior mine are in bad shape and I would like to give it a refresh lol

[@WeakestofWeeks]

Where are u located?

[@belldull3999]

Wanna do some work on my Saab?? I just recently purchased it and it’s having some issues and I can’t diagnose the issues

[@walterscanister7762]

If you would want to swap from a manual to an electric seat trying to keep it 100% OEM. In such a way that there is no difference from having it from factory or retrofiting it. What do you need and how complicated is it?

[@werner-gunterschmidt1619]

easy to do it like the OEM wirering. But you have to go from the rear electrical center to the driver side under the shifter to the passenger seat. You need also an extra relay in the REC and have to add it with tech 2, I also believe that I had to add a addidional fuse. If you want to retrofit an electric driver seat as well with memory you need also an addidionel I-BUS connection.

[@walterscanister7762]

@@werner-gunterschmidt1619 Thank you for the answer. Sounds even more complicated than I imagined. But on the other hand I would love to make it "properly"

[@do.u.groove5112]

Juice duh algo. Tickle tickle

[@MattWeaver909]

Any chance I can add memory seats to my aero?

[@WeakestofWeeks]

Yep. For my 08 Aero I just swapped the entire driver seat with memory and activated via tech 2. Models that don't have a powered driver seat would need wires added to get power though

[@MattWeaver909]

@@WeakestofWeeks can I just swap my seat frame. I have an 07 aero convertible. It has electric seats just no memory.

[@blarkdexture8899]

Can you send it to me in Sweden?

[@RoBruy]

Nice 60th interior but it doesn't match the car. Dash is parchment like the other trim and doorcards.

[@user-ox7ei4xd6z]

I use peppermint essential oil (spray) in my engine bay to keep rodents out.....they can't stand it!

[@WeakestofWeeks]

Thats a great tip!! Thanks for sharing!
