Hi all,
I ordered a new alloy rim for my 9-3 from partsforsaabs.com the other week. When it turned up, this was in the box with it:-
Anyone know what it is? Anyone want one?
Cheers,
Colin.

This is the CD holder for the universal holder in the 9-3 SS. I personally use mine as a bank. It comes in every sports sedan, as far as I know.
Thanks for that. I wondered whether it might be for holding a CD, but I couldn't quite believe they'd go to all that trouble for just one CD without a box!
Does anyone (in the UK) want it? I can't see myself ever getting an SS
- I use the hatch too much.
Cheers,

What's an allow rim ?
Graham
I'm not sure about allow rims :o)
But an alloy rim is the bit of a wheel that's made of alloy. I'd always been pedantic enough to think it wasn't a complete wheel unless it had a tyre on it. I'm sure there's a can of worms here somewhere...
Cheers,
Colin.
There is.
The rim is the part of a wheel that the tyre makes contact with.
I didn't know you could buy them separately from the rest of the wheel ! ;-)
I still have the faintest idea what it is you originally ordered.
Did you mean you ordered a new alloy wheel ?
Graham
Yep. That's the one, and since my car doesn't have split rims it's also the part of the wheel that gets bolted to the car. It's all a single casting.
Now we're back to split rims again.
'twas one of these :-
As far as cars are concerned, a wheel is an assembly that includes a tyre. I only ordered the rim. That's my story and I'm sticking to it :o)
Cheers,
Colin.
Talk about having a 'split' personality! 8-)
