Premium leather upgrade for the new Saab 9-5 dashboard

The high quality Hirsch Performance leather interior parts for the 9-3 have been a huge success among Saab drivers all around the globe. Building on this success, Hirsch Performance has developed a leather trim set for the instrument panel in the new 9-5.

Available in two different leather finishes, it gives a premium look and feel to the dashboard and the center stack. The version finished in black nappa leather offers an understated, luxurious look, while the embossed carbon leather version combines elegance and sportiness.

In addition to the premium appearance, the black leather used reduces distracting glare in sunny conditions and when driving at night.
