Newbie with 2000 9-5

Just bought certified 2000 lpt sedan with 34,000 miles. First SAAB (just came from half-a-million Volvo miles). Best car I've ever driven -- intuitve handling, adaquate power, elegant and comfortable interior. Two questions for my new SAAB collegues: On this 2000 base model do the seat heater and door lock switches light up? Car has ventilated seat option and these two switches illuminate. Second, even though the reliability stats for the 9-5 look good, I've noticed lots of DI failure messages on this board. Being stranded along my commute can be nasty --that's why I dumped the S70. Does anyone suggest "preemptive" DI replacement with a presumably improved new unit?
