Unless you really look, the cutout job isn't noticable. I'm just glad I have lots of room behind the unit & dash assembly/disassembly is a snap. All OEM's have tons of reasons for every decision they make, especially when they break with the standards. You want non standard look at the oval cutouts on Fords, or the crazy stuff GM does. At least I don't have a dash designed for an old 2-knob thing (like my '70 Valiant had). From what I saw about the SAABs I count my blessings. Besides, to quote Billy Crystal empeg 'looohks mahvelous!'.
