You are about to do one of the most fun and profitable jobs in Saab repair, because the C900 is the EASIEST clutch in the entire world to replace - you don't even have to get under the car!
I tend not to even put in a full kit, but just replace the pressure plate ($50, most pressure plates will last two disks, but get replace just because if you are paying shop prices for labor it's cheap insurance - also the garage likes to sell you the whole package because it increases their profits and reduces the chance of comebacks) and rebuild the slave cylinder ($3) rather than replace it, something that would normally be false economy, but makes sense on a C900 because if either goes its not a matter of paying $50 in labor just to reach the damn thing,s but rather another hour or two of work in your driveway.
Only tip above what is already said or availabe on the site mentioned, is use some rags and a board to protect the radiator, so it doesn't get dinged when you pop the little shaft out.
