ALL the ECU's from '94 to '98 are the same physical circuitboard and enclosure. I've reprogrammed a '97 automatic box for a '94 manual transmission (and vice versa). Saab ONLY changed the software from year to year (and based on transmission type).
I even plugged a '97 box (with OBDII software) into a '95 (without all the OBDII sensors) to see what happened... Yeah, I know it was risky but it DID start the car! The "check engine" light then lit up because it was missing things like that second O2 sensor... Don't do this at home kids! ;-)
