My sunroof had the same rattle, only when it was closed or in the "vent" position. The problem turned out to be two foam pads applied to the metal wind deflector (the one that all 9-5s have, pops up when you fully open the glass roof).
I found that these pads had slid to the side, and were allowing the wind deflector to contact the inside lip of the roof. Look for the foam pads, and see if they have moved or are missing altogether!
These pads look like a saab engineer's add-on fix for a design imperfection.
Good Luck
