I'll answer my own question. The collars for the head rests are, indeed, all that holds the plastic panels down. You release them by removing the rests, then reaching into the hole with a pick or small screw driver and prising the little tabs that are on one side about 1/2" below the top inward, while pulling up on the collar. It's a bit tricky because you are pushing the two items in opposite directions, but easy once you get the knack.
Rear belt replacement is very easy once that's done - just two bolts, must easier than front. I found some approved auto seat belt webbing on ebay, so I'm going to replace just the webbing with the help of a friend's industrial sewing machine - should be able to replace all 5 for about $15 and an hour or two's work, a considerable improvement on Saab's price of $1750 ;-)
