The units are sold as complete units, AFAIK - Belt, reel, mountings, 
pretensioner. The pretensioner is part of the reel assembly. Saab 
recommends replacing the entire unit should the pretensioner ever 
fire.

A 9000 unit from a car that has an airbag should pose no different 
mounting problems. I doubt a 900 unit would, either, but at least we 
know the 9000 unit goes where the unit you already have does.

It's up to you, what you think is the more important.
