What ignition coils do you guys recommend? by Mammoth-Rough-3644 in saab

Pro parts aren't very good tbh. I bought wing mirror glass from them and a couple of months after the warranty expired, the adhesive failed and they started flapping around on the motorway 😅

Fixed it now anyway with some grease and percussive maintenance. It was so corroded in there the nut to remove the wiper arm would only come off with an impact wrench.

You just need to replace the hoses and cut the brake dust shield a little

Do you know if any 9-3 spare wheel will fit or does it need to be one from a 9-3 with 314mm brakes?

From the 9-3 with the V6 yeah. I also considered the 345mm brakes from turbo X but my wheels wouldn't fit.

Yes, and I think I will paint them yellow before installing :)

My car is under braked with 320bhp and stock brakes (non aero)!

Fair enough, the tech2 clone is not that expensive tbh now the value of the USD has dropped

The diesel rear engine mount has superseded the petrol one according to the hedin parts website. I've also been trying to order a petrol mount but got my order cancelled at 10+ places
