> add-on accessory for the Saab 9000 windshield 
>washer reservoir that will heat the wiper fluid,

1) you don't want to heat the reservoir because it will drive the alcohol
out of the mixture, then when it sprays, it will freeze up the nozzle and
on your w/s. 
B) What Saab has in their catalog is a heat exchanger which fits in the
heater hose (you cut the hose and insert this) and transfers heat to the
wiper fluid as it is being sprayed.  THey want something in the $20 to $30
price range.
iii) What I have used is a think called 'hot squirt' made (many saabs ago)
by a company in Colorado.  The phone numbers on the box are 303-375-9590
and 800-356-VELM.  It's the same thing - you cut a piece out of the heater
hose and insert the hot squirt in its place.
