I own a classic 900 and a '95 9000. They're both wonderful and to anyone considering purchasing one... do it! You'll love these things. :3:

Also, here is my 900.

My gf's 1999 9-3 had what I think is the window roller shattering issue happen to her front passenger window. When she was rolling it down, there was a bang and the back corner rotated forward and dipped to the center of the window frame.

I've ordered the rollers and am going to follow the DIY here:

Anyone done this before? How brittle is the Saab/GM plastic? When I did something similar on my 1990 Miata, I broke about 3 or 4 plastic clips getting the door card off.

I repaired the rollers on my '95 9000 with no ill-effects. The rollers had worn to the point where the cable had slid off (or some weird crap) and bound up in a tangled mess. I then replaced the rollers and bushing with a $40 kit. Then I had a specialist rewind the tangled mass of cable. The window has worked fine since.

Taking it apart was no problem at all. I somewhat took my time and nothing broke or had snapped. It was pretty easy.
