Change the plugs yourself - it is a quick easy job. Use only NKGs -- gap to 35 - 39 thousanths. Search the archives and see Dean's posts on the correct plugs, gaps and torque values.
Buy a new DI cartridge (see the links on the Saabnet page) - I got one at a good price from eEurparts -- keep it in the trunk. If you ever suffer catastrophic failure of the cartridge (car quits) it is a 5 minute job to replace it - you can do it wearing a 3 piece suit and not get dirty.
My wife and I both drive Saabs with the red DI cartridge - both have given warning -- roughness on hard acceleration, occasional misfiring etc. but some owners have reported abrupt failure. A spare in the trunk prepares you for the eventual inevitable failure of the DI cart.
