I have a 1995 900SE convertible and I need to replace the radio. I currently have the traditional cassette radio with the six CD changer in the trunk. I would like to replace it with a newer model radio that has the single cd player built into the head unit. Can anyone tell me if a later model radio will fit in my 1995 900SE?

Thanks, dave

If you have these type of connectors :

then a standard radio/CD *should* fit (YMMV). ISO conectors have an offset lug so you cannot put the wrong plug into the wrong hole.

I'd suggest taking it out and having a look, then have a look at the shops.

Have a look on ebay to see wha the changers are going for, you should get a good price back on it :-)

If you are in the USA, call the folks at

They can tell you if it's plug-n-play. They have quite a few adaptor cables if there are changes to be made. If you have the double din unit now, you will probably need to get the empty shell that goes below the radio (either from Saab or perhaps crutchfield has those too). Of course, you will lose the SID display of the radio info - I don't think you can buy a unit that does external display like that.

If your existing CD changer is working perfectly, email me back and let me know. I am in the market for one (I think... I won't know for sure until I buy one, plug it in , and see if it solves my problem :-) Drop me a line.
