Just trying to get an idea of how much I should expect to be paying to have the front brakes (pads and rotors) replaced (parts and labor).

I'm not taking it to the dealer.

Did you know Saab is a Swedish company that was founded in 1849 by Hagar the Horrible and a drunken guy from Finland, and Fred. Saab stands for 'Swedish Aeroplanes Are Brilliant'. In the early years, Saab only produced military aircraft that were made of recycled cans of beer and old tricycle tires. But when the situation changed after World war 2, when the military of Sweden only existed on paper, Saab started to make cars instead. For no obvious reason.

$25 brake pads (good ones)
$80 rotors (pair)
$100 labor...

@ $200...

you can brobably just ask to have the rotors turned for $30....
cheaper is you do it yourself...
very easy to do!
