Well, I'm new, so here's my car...

[AndyConnolly]

It's a '04 plate Saab 9³ Vector convertible. Only mods to it are it's sat on Aero springs, so 10mm lower to the ground, and a BSR remap to their stage 1 spec (power from 175bhp to 204bhp, torque 261Nm to 310Nm, Boost to 1.1bar)







The one mod I haven't got round to doing yet that I have the bits for is de-oranging the front end. I have no idea how they ever expect anyone to change an indicator bulb in an emergency when step one involves moving water hoses!

It'll look a lot better with the clear indicator bulbs in.

But can people see you indicating if you have the headlights on?

I have always thought these cars look awsome on the road good job.

I think they still flash orange, but when they arent on, they look clear.

The bulbs have a silver coating on them that doesn't show the orange when not flashing, so completely legal. They are actually fitted to a CLS as standard.

Yeah, they flash orange, but have a silver coating. Used to be known as diadem bulbs, but just get clear indicators nowadays. Osram and Philips do them and they all have e-marks. I did the swap on my old Omega, and it looked 100 times better for it!
