You may have no choice. The OEM white plastic one 5334701 is on national backorder and has been for a while. No luck online. After I couldn't get my aluminum one from the saabsite to fit, I switched jobs and went on to instrument cluster bulbs (much more pleasant!).

I'll give it one more shot when it stops raining here, then probably ask my dealer to install my aluminum arm. I like the look of the taliaferro / genuinesaab one best, but since the lever is not broken yet for me, I think I should probably stay with just the stop arm. (The instructions from saabservices say not to cut the shaft if it's not broken.

Although I'm having fitment troubles, I found some others with the same difficult experience (no tips I'm afraid) in the archives.

Also I see similar aluminum versions selling for 2-4 times as much from other sources and on the bay. So assuming the saabsite's fits, it is by far the most reasonably priced one I've seen.
