Nice! I'm actually thinking of buying a unit and modify it for something like a Raspberry. The problem is of course the lcd screen itself, which needs to be replaced. But it might exist screen which can be fitted with some modifications. The main goal is of course to preserve the original look of the unit.

You should be able to give the nav unit a software update with a tech2 and a computer to enable Bose centerpoint. For the European market there are 3 different part numbers and I don’t know for the US. But the two later ones, from 08 and up, are able to too activate the Bose centerpoint from a software update.

You probably need an updated nav dvd. I think they still make them.

You can get a modern Map disc from a different GM vehicle and pop it right into the Saab unit. The only drawback being that you may have to actually modify the head unit itself and take out a specific component and swap it with a GM generic one. However i've heard that this takes away the Saab logo from the display on startup and u get a Delphi screen instead.

My '05 9-5 Aero has maps from 2013 or so. I think that was the last available update from GM for the 2005 9-5 model with Denso Nav though. Hopefully you get the correct head unit so you can actually enjoy the sound properly!

Just watched your installation video and I can tell that you have missed one of the most important things which is this part number 12781884 Without it, the quality and the loudness of the sound won't be that great. So, just install it and i am sure that you will get the best sound quality.

Heyyy ummm. I have a problem with my navigation (same as yours ) . It semi work. Aux and cd work but navigation and fm radio doesnt work , tech 2 doesnt even recognise there is the navigation . What it can be? What can i do to fix it? Tnx upfront

I also have the bose button, but it doesnt change loudness, it only changes the surround. Maybe the nav is not configured for the bose amplifier.

@@AutoAutopsy Before physically changing your sat nav unit: Use a tech 2 to divorce and remarry your current unit. It may be an issue with the set up. I too installed a "non bose" sat nav unit into my 2008 9-3 but have no issues with sound. When I first installed it I selected the wrong speaker configuration with the tech 2 and sound quality was subpar. Once I went back in via tech 2 and redid the setup I overcame that issue.

Kinda surprised that it was not a BOSE feature that could be unlocked via TECH2? Is that confirmed? I would be amazed if they had two different head units, unless BOSE was introduced after the first head unit was designed? The SAAB Logo on startup justifies the effort, until someone intros a mod for an android head unit that lets you post your own SAAB startup screen. :-)
