I'm not sure what you mean by "plastic snaps for the floor net". The Saab floor net was an after-sale accessory and not part of the standard equipment. And it comes with four clips to attach at the rings around the trunk.
From what you describe, it sounds like you have everything that the cars shipped with from new. I've never seen a tire gauge in the trunk, though for some years they were in the documents pouch, along with a pen. It's always possible that the designers and engineers had thoughts about including something or some things, but the accountants got in the way at the end, but not until after the dies for the foam mold were already cast. (Early 9-5 MIUs carry a spot for a warning light "Check ACS". "ACS" was also known as "Sensonic", and was the automatic clutch system Saab was developing. It never made it to any production 9-5, yet the spot for the bulb in the MIU lasted through MY 2001...)
Saab also has been known to provide for certain accessories in the manufacture of the car. 9-5 wagons all have the roof attachments for the pet gate, but the pet gate was only sold as an accessory. Same goes for the roof racks on sedans...
The wheel bolt caps were always an accessory item, and never from the factory.
