Neither our 900 or 9-3 have a round switch? There are just rows of buttons? Are you sure you have air-con? (Whatever) I'd recommend phoning Hagstrom Saab www.hagstromsaab.co.uk/accessories.asp they have all sorts of bits.

its not air conditioning as such, its the round knob on the dashboard, nearest to the driver and steering wheel. it controls the ventilation from windscreen setting to inside setting.
the knob next to it controls the number setting of heat from 1-5,

it broke off in my hand and snapped the white bit and now cannot turn the knob so i can only have windscreen heat on and not inside heat
