Welcome to our obsessed world! You've only just begun.
If you open the sunroof and look down from above you can see the channel for water runoff. You'll notice several drain holes in the channel. They are connected to drain lines hidden beneath the headliner which then lead to beneath the car to evacuate the water. First check to see if there is any debris at the openings in the drain channel. If there are no clogs there, there may be a blockage in the drain line somewhere. You can usually clear them with compressed air.
The radio code could be jotted down anywhere. It is a four digit number. I've seen them written down on the fuse panel, in the glovebox, etc. Most obvious place would be the owner's manual, too bad that's missing. The second most obvious place is on the radio itself. If you dont have radio removal tools you can just use four #8 nails or a coat hanger. There are small holes in each corner of the facia on the radio. You need to put the removal tools (or other things I've suggested) into those holes to release the mechanism that locks the radio into the dash cage. Once you have it out , look for a 4-digit number hand-written or scratched into the top of the radio.
If you're replacing plug wires use Bougicord only. If you're replacing coolant best to use Mercedes-Benz own brand (available at a Benz dealer). Good idea to change the oil in the tranny gearbox (I like Amsoil for this). Also check ball joints for excessive play.
The service and repair manual is a must if you're a DIY person. It's called the Bently Saab 900 Manual.
1992 Saab 900T 3DHB (winter car), 1993 900T Commemorative Edition, 1994 900T CVT Commemorative Edition, plus two parts cars in the yard. :-)
