"I had a mack truck relay in mine. A relay is a relay..."
Well Diderich, that's about as useful as saying a book is a book.
If you have substituted a Mack truck relay for the one in question, it would be very kind of you to identify the exact part if you want to be helpful.
If I call Mack and ask for a Mack truck relay, the parts guy will be needing better information.
Just for your edification, a relay is not a relay. The headlight relay in question has a couple of coils and multiple contacts and about seven pins and there is no easy substitute. If you go to an intelligent parts guy and ask for a "Bosch relay," he may know what you mean and pull out the appropriate item, but it will not satisfy the SAAB headlight application under discussion.
These relays are very durable in my experience. I am not aware of any replacement source or substitution possibility.
