I recall running some Weibull analysis on fuel pumps when a few SaabNet posters chimed in. The number I got for eta (63.2% failure rate) was 165,000 miles. I plan on doing the pump on our 150,000 Aero this summer. It currently has NO symptoms. Since it's an '04 removal from the under seat opening should be pretty straightforward.
My BMW 3 sedan has 164,000 miles on it and I did the pump on that last summer. It too has the under seat access panel and it took me all of 2.5 hours including replacement of the fuel filter.
Make sure you do the filter when you do the pump.
