We have 2 NG900s that I have replaced the stock resistor with one similar to the 9000. I think there was a write up on it on one of the other Saab forums - central or something? The oldest has been on for about 8 months and both are working fine.
I mounted the resistor with heat sink compound on a small aluminum plate and zip tied it to the fan housng blade where the old one was. The resistor creates a lot of heat, so it should be heat sinked and stuck out where it is exposed to the fan blast.
You can use the same resistor as the 9000, though there is a slightly better one available from Digikey. If you can't find the thread telling how let me know and I can dig up the info.
It's not a hard job, considering the savings.
