I did this on my 94 900 SE coupe last year to fix leaky roof panel gaskets and leaky side windows. I would expect the Viggen 3 door is nearly identical.
a. Open appropriate side door and hatch
b. Pull back door weatherstrip at B pillar and C pillar (hatch weather strip)
c. Remove the sill door scuff plate
d. Loosen B pillar trim by seat belt mount (upper) and pull it down along seat belt. I think this was a bolt, have a magnetic retrieval device handy in case you drop it into the panel cavity (ask me how I know this)
e. Fold rear seat backrest forward and remove rearmost clip on panel
f. Fold seat back upright and remove the remaining two clips or screws at the front edge of the panel
g. You should be able to remove the panel at this point, you may have to jockey the C pillar trim around a bit to free it up.
While you have this thing removed (You did not say why you are doing this)get some stick on Dynamat and slap a layer on the inside of the metal body, this really cut down on the road noise. I had to pull out the back windows and roof panels to fix my leaks so I had a lot more to do.
