Cabin Heater Blower -- two issues

Hi, everyone!
I have two questions about a blower motor problem for my 1999 2.3L Wagon.
The first is -- the motor doesn't work much, but it starts right up if I hit the center console (thanks saabnet, you rock!!!!). Once the fan is running, I can control the speed okay. If this works, does that definitely mean that it's the fan and not the controller?
My second is -- I checked the price of the fan, and it's about 380 bucks for a saab oem replacement (part 5331236). This seems very steep, and I was shocked to find that the part for a post-2000 car is cheaper (part 5049085). Is there really a difference between the two fans? Also, do I care about Saab oem part vs. a scantech or uro brand part?
Either my mechanic or my DIYer friend will do the work, but I know from experience that it will be much cheaper for me if I get my own part and do my own diagnosis.
Thanks!
JD
