    Quality Aftermarket Direct Ignition Module Saab 95

    Hi Gang....
    Any advice on a particular quality after-market brand of DIC for my SAAB 95 2.0T Vector Sport that will replace my failing OEM unit?
    Also need a good ALarm module and rear Park Assist Sensor....
    Thanks

    Hello and welcome. Car quest is a parts store in the US and they have a very good price on OEM DICs for a low price. What Mike meant with "while they last" is prices will go up when their stock is gone. I don't think they ship and is for local pickup only.

    Here is a thread with more information, it also discusses some aftermarket options: http://saabworld.net/f9/last-chance-...m-units-27412/

    PartsForSaabs has a good price on OEM and I believe they ship all over the world. Parts for Saabs: 9-5 98'-10' Direct Ignition Cassette

    I personally don't have any experience with aftermarket DICs so I can't recommend any.

    Rumor is the older cars with T5 (RED DIC) there is a working aftermarket unit out there. As for the Black T7 DIC - there are NO good aftermarket units at all yet. The chineese ones which are sold as a Beck Arnley are garbage. They will missfire out of the box. OEM is the ONLY option as of now.
