This was one of the advantages of the GM takeover of Saab - common parts could be purchased in much larger volumes at a reduced cost. As long as the common parts are of good quality, this is not a problem. Even as long as 20 years ago, Volvo and Saab shared parts. I know the power lock solenoid was common because I replaced both in a 1982 Volvo and 1986 900.
