John,
Yes, it's the Denso 7SB16 unit in the car. I was quoted $525-ish for a reman compressor from the local dealer plus a couple hours' labor.
I replaced the compressor in mine last month (the original was on the verge of seizing--took the clutch coil out first). I went with a used OE Saab compressor (approx 75k miles on it, sub-$100 after core return, located via the car-part site) and was able to use a vacuum pump/evac rig and gauges to prep and recharge my system. Worst case, if you had access to a vac pump and gauges, you could probably do that at home.
I didn't replace the dryer as the system still held refrigerant, and dumped out the oil from the used compressor then refilled with an approximate amount of PAG as specified in the WIS. It all went back together smoothly, and has been working nicely since.
