9-5 Sunroof, wind deflector damanged

When closing the sunroof on my 2003 9-5 Linear Sportwagon, i heard a loud "pop", and then the sunroof wouldn't close. It appears that the plastic clip that supports the arm of the wind deflector on the passenger's side broke free from the frame, and it is blocking the sunroof from closing. I was able to push it out of the way and close the roof.
I have read numerous posts on this site regarding this issue, but have not yet seen a good solution. I could certainly try to use glue to attached the offending piece as suggested in one posting, but I would rather replace it. I saw reference in one post to a newer, stronger clip. Does anyone know if this is available? If so, what is the part number? Is this a DIY job, or do I need to go to my Saab dealer for repair? It seems like a relatively easy fix, but any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dennis
