You should buy a dual terminal battery and get new battery cables at the same time. With the dual terminal, you can use the top terminal to connect to the starter, and use the side terminal to connect to the accessories. This allows you to buy an aftermarket battery cable and use a short starter cable for the accessory terminal. Saves a bunch of money from the Saab cables. Also, by putting the positive terminal near the firewall, you avoid the possibility of the hood grounding to the positive terminal. I think this is the reason they switched them in 95.
Also, check out the Optima battery, usually available at Costco for about $100.00
