Search for drs<underscore>install for brake posts. Pads on this BB and the whole job on the NG900 BB.
Did you check what tool you need for the caliper bracket to hub bolts? Fastener head styles used in the factory change over time.
If the single locking screw per rotor does not seem willing to come out, get a 1/4" drive 'use a hammer' impact wrench, Sears has these. Make sure its the right bit!!! Clean the pocket out. Set bit into the head with a hammer blow. These screws should not be put in tight. They only server too line up the wheel bolt holes and to index the p-brake adjuster hole on the rears. Once the wheel is bolted out they could vanish. The screws are very soft, to allow for drilling them out if needed, but that makes them strip all the easier. I think that a stainless steel allen head screw would be better. If the head sticks out, no problem with Saab allow wheels as there is a pocket in the wheel at that point. Study the wheel and note the 'fingerprint' left on the hub by the wheel.
