Question:
I installed a Curt 11326 Hitch on my 2007 Saab 9-3 Sedan. I recently traded the vehicle for a 2006 Saab 9-3 Sportcombi. I am wondering if the 11326 will fit? What would be the differnce between the Curt 11326 and the 11415?

I spoke with my contact at CURT and he pointed out to me that the difference between the CURT Hitch # 11415 and # 11326 is the way the plate behind the hitch opening mounts to the bumper beam tab. On the # 11415 the plate on the hitch will go in front of the bumper beam tab, whereas the plate from the # 11326 will install behind the bumper beam tab.
Check out the picture I attached that shows both of these hitches next to each other so you can see the differences.
I also attached installation instructions for both hitches for you to check out.
Because of the differences between these hitches for your 2006 Saab 9-3 Sportcombi I would recommend you use the # 11415.
