Water pump R&R? How tough?

The water pump on my 1992 900S CV is making a lot of noise when I first start the car in the morning.
After reading several threads here, I want to be proactive about changing it before it fails me out on the road.
How tough a job is it to replace? It looks quite difficult given the location of the water pump in relation to the fire wall (tight spot, not much room to work) and other things that are in the way, including needing to remove/replace/retorque belts, etc...
For those who have tackled the job as a diy, what are your experiences with the job, what to watch out for, how best to prep anything in advance, etc.
Also, with the pump replacement itself, is this a Saab OEM must use part, or are the aftermarket options just as good?
