except for the AC compressor as thats easy to replace. Didn't encounter any problems, however removing the tensioner for the alternator and then reinstalling it after the belts were on works great, make sure you are on the correct points on the pulley, remove the hose if you have to for more space, the pivot points on the ac and power steering pump tensioners can be loosened and tightened up after the belts are installed. They seem pretty tight until they are seated, when you have a lot of slack to take up. Above all get the right belts, e euro has them. Lastly I am not sure if they are metric belts or not, they are different, the metric type as used on Volvos are deeper V while the US type ones are a flatter V...not sure if Saab is the same, but may in fact be. Use the wrong ones and they'll work for a while, but will wear fast. My 2 cents
