Correct silicone grease for repair?

I have a 2000 9-3 hatchback, base model, with the manual controls for the heat and a/c system. The control shaft on the air distribution knob broke and I figured while replacing that I would do the steps listed in the TSB at genuinesaab.com for "9-3 Manual Heater Control".
The part item listed that I have not been able to find is the silicone grease.
87 81 718 (CA: 30576981) Silicone grease
Is this a special type of silicone grease or can I get a comparable silicone grease at the local auto parts store? I want to be sure and get the right thing because I know an original problem with the manual system on some 1999-2000 9-3's was partially due to the use of the wrong grease at the factory.
