Congratulations! I made the exact same switch about 3 years ago!
Do a search here for the SID thing - several good sources.
Those are "Saab" roof racks (probably OEM'd by Thule) that fit in the holes under the rubber door gasket. By far the BEST way to go - I have a pair, myself. You can get a set of Thule bars/feet that will fit the 9-5, but that's a pretty kludgy setup compared to the factory racks. The Saab racks used to be less than $100 at the dealer, but occasionally they show up on eBay for about half that.
I ran my 9000T to about 200K, and by then it was pretty much worn and rusted out. I find the 9-5 to be a real blast to drive, but I DO miss the 9000T's hatch. (Wife has a 9-5 wagon, so no real problem...)
Good luck with your new Aero!
