We're talking about the 1998-2009 9-5 and the 1999-2002 9-3, right?
Lights: no.
Wheels: Probably, but it depends on the specifics. You cannot put 15" wheels over Aero or Viggen brakes.
Converting between auto and manual on these cars is not a trivial task. The electronics have to be swapped or at least programmed to know which transmission you have, and there are likely wiring issues as well.
My advice: If you really, really, really want a manual transmission in either of these cars, find it and buy it. Don't do the swap.
