Used Airbag System replacement???

I thought I'd just ask...
I have a 93 9kT which the insurance company is about total out. I can buy the car for $500 salvage, in great condition...Had the tranny overhauled in Dec. Otherwise, the car is in great shape. The reason it was totalled out was because the body shops wanted > $5000 to replace the whole airbag system (airbag, seatbelts, sensors, and STEERING COLUMN!!) I'm not complaing...I'm about to get a crapload of money, but if I want to get my collison/comprehensive insurance back I have to replace the airbag system. They didn't really give me details, they just said fix it and we'll cover you....so do you think it's a good idea to go with a used one??? I can get the airbag module and sensor for around $80. They both cost like $1200 NEW from SAAB. The used ones are said to be in good working order and the control module reports no error codes. Do you think this is a good idea?? Is it hard to dig out the sensor?? The module looks like it just screws out. Or am I just playing with fire??
Opinions and flames wanted....thanks!!
