I thought the same thing when I first changed mine. I have an '02 SE but it should be close to the same. My car came with the set of 2 or 3 torx head screwdrivers in with the jack and sparetire compartment. Just unscrew the 4 or 5 torx screws (size T-25 if you don't have the Saab tools) on the sides of the airbox and then loosen the band clamp screw with a regular screwdriver on the intake hose to the manifold and it just slides off. Mine also has one tension clip (right under the manifold hose) on the airbox. In this case, its easier done than said.
