David, my non-Saab experience is that pads (both OEM and aftermarket) come with necessary replacement anti-rattle springs or clips. Don't know if Saab/EBC is different, but likely you shouldn't have to worry about getting extras.
Important simple safety point, make sure your car is securely jacked up with jack stands and not rely on the hand/floor jack alone. The ooomph required to break loose a caliper bolt may be enough to knock a car off, a common occurance of the weekend mechanic (though usually happens to owners of '72 Novas).
