yeah like gasm said it slides under the weather strip. hopefully they look good we put a set on gasm's snow car and they dont look too bad.

 

Arrowhead will make fun of you for owning a SAAB...they don't work on them too often.

Next time you're down in the cities I'll do it for you.

 

+1 for louvres

+ [insert maximum permissible number] for louvers.

I bought some louvers but they didn't include the lower mounting tabs. Are these easy to find or fabricate?

 

/mourn the loss of my louvre

someone, somewhere, between Mission Viejo and Anaheim, along that stretch of route 5, now owns a rear window louvre... that met pavement or some other far more gut wrenching demise... after it came off my car in excess of 95mph.

i fabricated my own rear mounts using a couple strips of sheet metal (paid too much for that at the hardware store), a couple of 1/4" flathead screw fasteners and a few nuts. i trimmed the metal into 2 strips about 3 inches long, square on 3 corners and round on the fourth to fit snugly into the bottom corners under the weatherstripping. holes drilled into approximate locations, fasteners inserted and held on with a nut on each. i then cross threaded another nut onto the end of the fastener and used a grinder to shave the nuts until they were round and rather flat, taking metal off the end of the fastener and nut until it sat snugly into the hole on the underside of the louvre and allowed me to push the clips into place.

it worked well for a while.

obviously, not well enough.

anyone seen my louvre? or parts of it maybe?

 

what the hell are louvres.....other than louvre being a museum in Paris

 

i'm not sure myself. are they the things that look like blinds for rear hatches? if so are they socially acceptable on post 1989 automobiles?

EDIT: just realized i was in the classic 900 forum as opposed to NG900/Old9-3 where I usually dwell so i guess they would be socially acceptable. carry on...

 

oh man louvres are so pimp, especially the ones that have "saab" cutout on the side

 

For once I can't find pics of a 900 with louvers or any for sale on ebay or tsn to show you Leo.

 

Here's what they look like:

 

Nice, somebody had the pictures I was looking for.

 

Louvres: If x = +∞ (positive infinity) points for louvres then,

Lim 1/x = 0
X → ∞

Therfore, there are 0 positive points for the louvre

 

haha, nice marky. I remember that calculus shit all of a sudden.

 

I think of acting out amishgeeks second video when i think of louvres.

 

I wanna see this video lol.

 

go to the beggining of the post, you should see it in in his signature

 

LOL, I thought you were referring to something else.

 

lmao! What were you thinking?

 

haha louvers all depend on the car for me black car they look go on all other they look like shit!

 

Louvres rule.

 

They might look ok on some c900s....but they're even worse on a 9000 (86-92).

 

OMG



Such controversy! I got the Shadow Louvres (the ones with the SAAB cutouts). And they are going on my Black SPG. And my SPG will also be getting a black Whale Tail eventually. Then it will be pure secks!

 

you need a bike rack and super incas and fog lights and extra guages and the sport and rally steering wheel and the casette tape holder in the dash and wind deflectors and a saab jacket next.

 

They look the bomb....(although I shouldn't say that too loud in Boston...)


My first Saab was an 86 C900, white with an airflow kit, and louvers on the back....It was AWESOME....like Kip Winger on acid...

Definitely put em on....
