() I just took delivery of a new Saab 900, and am quite happy with the car. However, this is my first European car of any type (I've never even owned a VW) and I had a couple of questions that maybe other Saab owners could help me out on. 1) On the first cold start of the morning, the charge light (I hate idiot lights!) stays on until I five the gas pedal a tap. This occurs only on the first start of the day and there have been no other electrical anomalies that I have noticed. The dealer claims that this is a "typical Saab trait". Is it? 2) I finally discovered the type of mounting bracket that I needed to install a stereo in the dash, it snaps firmly in place. How to remove it without damaging the dashboard? (It seems to be in quite tightly, can it be just pulled out without destroying anything?) 3) The heated seats are nice but seem to work intermittently. Sometimes they really cook, and other times they don't seem to come on. The dealer was not very enlightening on this. Is there a pressure switch in the seat that may need adjusting or replacement? Thanks in advance for any info! Bob Alpert ...decwrl!dec-rhea!dec-nanook!alpert
